class of 76-77 Posted November 3, 2013 Report Posted November 3, 2013 Having known someone who has passed away with the same illness, I wish nothing but good wishes to Fernando! I can only echo these sentiments as one of my parents had a close friend who died of MND, I wouldn't wish such a horrible illness on my worst enemy, can only wish the lad manages to have as much quality life as possible with the time he has left.

Kombibuddie Posted September 18, 2019 Report Posted September 18, 2019 Fernando Ricksen now out of his misery. Very sad.Unfortunately, the progressive illness that MND is, brings misery to the sufferer and family.6 years is a horrible way to watch someone die.Fernando Ricksen faced his illness with dignity & i found a respect for the man, i never thought possible.Truly tragic outcome for him and his family at a young age.My condolences to his family & friends.

St.Ricky Posted September 21, 2019 Report Posted September 21, 2019 Nice little footnote. The laying of a wreath by Neil Lennon and Lawless was a very welcome gesture Quote
