Welcome to the blog that accompanies David Scott’s brand new vlog channel, where we embark on an inspiring journey together. David, recently diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (MND), has decided to share his story, his challenges, and his strategies for living life to the fullest despite the condition. His vlogs will be a source of motivation, education, and community for anyone affected by MND, as well as those simply looking to learn more about the condition and how to support others.

Why David Started His Vlog Channel

David’s decision to start this vlog channel came from a deeply personal place. Receiving a diagnosis of MND can be overwhelming, but David is determined not to let it define him. His mission is to stay active, positive, and engaged with life, and he wants to bring others along on this journey. By sharing his experiences, he hopes to build a community where people can find strength, learn practical ways to manage their condition, and support one another.

In his own words, David explains, “I want to show that life with MND doesn’t have to be all about limitations. It’s about finding new ways to keep moving, staying as healthy as possible, and embracing the present moment.”
