Couple bring wedding forward after groom given devastating diagnosis following 'drop foot difficulties'

A couple brought their wedding forward after a devastating diagnosis was given following "drop foot difficulties."

Steve Kennett, from Ellesmere Port, was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (MND) in January this year. The 57-year-old had suffered long term back problems and had spinal fusion 20 years ago.

When Steve began having drop foot difficulties the couple thought it was linked to his back problems, but it was linked to MND. Steve and his partner Byron Schofield had plans for a wedding in Spain but these were dashed by the devastating medical diagnosis, reports CheshireLive.
