Father fighting Motor Neuron Disease

$340 donated
Given by 13 generous donors in around 6 months

raising funds for a disability vehicle

Auckland

My dad Mr Grant Lovatt has been living with Motor Neurone Disease for just over 6 years. Before he was diagnosed he was a hard working man who owned his own party hire company. But he sadly had to retire as his body couldn't keep up with the work he was doing.

till this day today he is still able to talk perfectly fine, but the muscles have caused him to lose the use of his hands so this means he is unable to to general everyday things like eating, showering even going to the toilet. His legs are still working but are slowing weakening which will mean that he will be unable to then walk.

Please anyone that knows about what this disease does. It will be much appreciated a donation even of a dollar would mean something as this page is set up to follow my dads dreams.

the funds will be used to buy a mobility van for my dad as he is he a electric wheelchair and is unable to get in and out of my mums small car

Hi Kayla, I also have MND and I have a mobility van. Please contact me to see if we can figure out a way to give your dad some access to our van until he gets his own one. All the best, Nick
