Coronation Street viewers divided over 'rapid progression' of Paul’s MND

ok.co.uk:

Coronation Street fans were left heartbroken on Wednesday ( 23 August) when Paul Foreman’s Motor Neurone Disease took another devastating turn as he found he was unable to climb the stairs to his home.

As regular viewers will know, Paul was diagnosed with the incurable degenerative condition earlier this year, which over time will gradually impact on his ability to move, to speak, to eat and even to breathe on his own.

In recent weeks, Paul has been struggling to come to terms with his diagnosis, with his condition worsening this week, while he was tasked with babysitting his nephew Bryn.

While trying to keep up with the youngster, Paul fell as he tried to stop him from running off, something which he later realised meant he was no longer fit enough to take care of his young relative.
