We could take on anything together, but when we received the diagnosis, “I’m sorry, it is sporadic CJD”, those few words floored us. It was devastating. I knew what CJD was. The most amazing man I have ever known would die in a matter of weeks; at 56 years old it was about thirty years too early. And there was nothing we could do. Nothing. When we received the diagnosis I said to Mark, “We don’t deserve this”. Mark replied, “Nobody deserves CJD”. He was right.
“CJD took my mum so quickly and brutally”
This is why our family wanted to support the Cure CJD Campaign – to try and get vital research into this disease, a disease so many of the medical community never knowingly encounter. I never want another family to go through what we did – watching someone slip away at such a rapid speed with no one understanding why, and not being able to offer support to the family while their whole world implodes.
“I pray that other families will not have to face a loss like ours”
My brother will always be in my heart. He is missed so much. For the future, I pray that other families will not have to face a loss like ours. It gives me comfort knowing so much amazing work is taking place in the Prion Unit in London to find a treatment for this terrible disease.
