The conversation starts with the obvious question: "How are you?"
"I’m OK," Bristol Rovers legend Marcus Stewart replies, just over a year on from his motor neurone disease (MND) diagnosis. "My symptoms are good, I’m good and nothing has evolved or progressed much. I’ve still got a weak hand and a weak arm, but I can still talk and I can still walk, I can still ride a bike and I can still drive.
"In my mind, there is not a lot wrong with me. I just have to adapt when it comes to carrying things with my left hand. I am quite slim anyway, but my left hand is a lot slimmer than the rest of my body and I struggle to carry things, but otherwise, I’m pretty normal, I’m still on the bike and I’m pretty active at the moment."
