A dad who had severe back pain has been told he has an aggressive life-changing condition.
Keith Bailey, from Litherland, was told he has one of the most aggressive forms of motor neurone disease (MND), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The dad-of-one complained of severe back pain, thinking he was suffering from sciatica, before months of tests revealed he in fact had the debilitating disease last year.
Keith's nephew, Lee Bailey, from Crosby, said: "He complained of back pain thinking he had sciatica. He had various tests, including a lumbar puncture, and then an official diagnosis came in September or October last year.
