MND living with Kok Peng

MND living with Kok Peng

I lost contact with Kok Peng after university but we remained FB friends throughout. It was only recently that i saw him post about his diagnosis and condition. What really inspired me was his positive mindset and perspective towards life. There is no cure for MND and ultimately all patients will require a caregiver as they lose most of their bodily function. 

More information and insight below: 

Motor Neurone Disease Association (MNDa) Singapore is at its infancy stage, but with everyone’s awareness and support, hopefully we will have the resources and capability to scale and provide #DignityCareHope to our patients and caregivers. 


Do follow MNDa SG’s journey on the following platforms:
