Former England and Gloucestershire fast bowler David ‘Syd’ Lawrence says he is not afraid of dying and is "up for the fight" after being diagnosed with motor neurone disease .passed away from the illness earlier this year, while former Scotland rugby union forward Doddie Weir died in November 2022, six years after his diagnosis.
Lawrence was struggling to walk last Christmas after a slow recovery from a knee replacement and by March of this year was admitted for three months in hospital."I got the dreadful news in June that I had the disease which is a tough one," he said. Burrow and Sinfield raised more than £15m for MND charities and Lawrence is planning fundraising events of his own.
