Amy Schneider, Daniel Woodrow and Sarah Barratt all lost their fathers to motor neurone disease (MND). Each of their fathers were a great influence in their lives, so much so that they are now dedicating their careers to helping people just like their dads.
They now work at MND Victoria, bringing their lived experience and shared understanding to help other families impacted by this devastating disease. They recognise just how vital the right care, support and assistive equipment is on someone’s MND journey.
Amy, Daniel and Sarah have all written heartfelt letters to their dads, filling them in on everything they've missed since they passed and giving insight into the passion that drives their careers.
At MND Victoria, we understand. We are here for all Victorians impacted by MND, every step of the way.
