A "Disease" which is not even a disease. An illness that gradually destroys the motor neurons in your body. Eventually the sufferer wont be able to do anything. The Hollywood actor, David
Niven had the "disease". There is no known cause of the illness, nor a cure, but there is research going into the prospect of using
stem cells to recreate the
savaged motor neurons, but it's not yet known if the disease will destroy the new ones too. Has nothing to do with shakey hands.
My dad had trouble walking, he went to the doctor for
tests. He later found out he had motor neuron disease. A while later he got pnumonia and died
3 days after
christmas day, and I was 12!
