Raise For Richie Bryon, better known as Richie, is a loving husband and dad to four who faces a challenging battle ahead. Last month, Glenmore Park family man, Richie jolted his back and thought nothing of it. Fifteen minutes after arriving home that night, he had severe pain in both legs and shortly after, he couldn't feel them at all. He was taken to Liverpool Hospital where, after days of testing and deteriorating health, the specialists have yet been able to diagnose what is thought to be some form of motor neurone-affecting disease. A diagnosis and some certainty might still be some time off. Richie is suffering random spasms throughout his body, and the pain, weakness and numbness, particularly through his arms, comes and goes. His balance and coordination is off, and he is having problems with his vision at times. His legs remain paralysed. ď ˛ď€ On better days, Richie and family. Article and Image Supplied
