Laughter and weak muscles could be early signs of an incurable condition that claimed the life of a lifelong LFC fan this week.
Chris Rimmer, co-founder of the Darby Rimmer MND Foundation, died aged 39 on Monday after being diagnosed with motor neurone disease in 2015. The incurable and fatal condition causes weaknesses that get worse over time as brain and nerve cells called motor neurones stop working.
Many of the earliest signs of motor neurone disease relate to difficulties caused by muscles wasting away, but one is due to changes in thinking and behaviour. The Motor Neurone Disease Association urged people to get checked if they struggle to stop themselves from laughing in inappropriate situations.
