FND Awareness Month: Local stories of functional neurological disorder
Mentioned: Aemann Mcpartland, Molly, Owen
Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) Awareness Month is being marked with interviews from two local people affected by the condition. Aemann McPartland, founder and chairman of FND Ireland from Manorhamilton, and 16-year-old Molly from Kiltum discuss how FND—a condition affecting how the brain and body communicate neurological symptoms—impacts their daily lives. Both have experienced seizures, mobility issues, tremors, and fatigue, with significant gaps in Irish healthcare provision for treatment.
