Bendungan Doddy
Mantan pemain internasional rugby Skotlandia, Doddie Weir, meninggal dunia pada usia 52 tahun setelah menderita penyakit saraf motorik.
Weir, yang memenangkan 61 caps dalam karir Skotlandia yang legendaris, menggunakan profilnya untuk mendorong penelitian yang lebih baik dilakukan ke MND setelah diagnosisnya pada tahun 2016, dan meminta perawatan yang lebih baik diberikan kepada mereka yang menderita.
“Dengan sangat sedih kami mengumumkan kematian suami dan ayah tercinta kami, Doddie,” bunyi pernyataan dari keluarga melalui Scottish Rugby Union.
“Doddie adalah kekuatan alam yang menginspirasi. Energi dan dorongannya yang tak ada habisnya, dan kekuatan karakternya mendorongnya melalui karir rugby dan bisnisnya dan, kami percaya, memungkinkannya untuk melawan efek MND selama bertahun-tahun.
“Doddie memberikan energi yang sama dan bahkan lebih banyak cinta dan kesenangan ke dalam hidup kami bersama: dia adalah pria keluarga sejati. Sulit untuk mengungkapkan dengan kata-kata betapa kami akan merindukannya.
“MND mengambil begitu banyak dari Doddy, tetapi tidak pernah semangat dan tekadnya. Dia melawan MND dengan sangat berani, dan sementara pertempurannya sendiri mungkin berakhir, perjuangannya berlanjut melalui yayasannya, sampai obat ditemukan untuk semua orang dengan penyakit yang menghancurkan ini. “

Memberikan penghormatan kepada Doddie Weir setelah kematiannya pada usia 52 tahun, Menteri Pertama Skotlandia Nicola Sturgeon men-tweet: “Ini sangat menyedihkan. Doddie adalah salah satu legenda olahraga bangsa kita, tetapi cara berani dia menanggapi MND melampaui
apa pun yang pernah dicapai di lapangan rugby.
“Dia menolak untuk membiarkannya meredupkan semangatnya dan melakukan banyak hal untuk membantu orang lain. Belasungkawa saya untuk orang yang dicintainya.”
Weir berkomitmen di tahun-tahun terakhirnya untuk membantu orang lain yang terkena dampak MND dan berjuang melawan kondisi tersebut, mendirikan yayasannya sendiri, My Name’5 Doddie.
Jill Douglas, kepala eksekutif yayasan, berkata: “Doddie menikmati kehidupan penuh kesenangan dan cinta. Dan pendekatan hidup inilah yang bersinar dalam tekadnya untuk membuat perbedaan dan membantu orang lain ketika dia didiagnosis
dengan penyakit motor neuron.
“Dia menginspirasi kami setiap hari dengan kepositifan dan energinya dan berkomitmen penuh pada pekerjaan yayasan yang dia luncurkan bersama teman-teman dekatnya pada November 2017.
“My Name’5 Doddie Foundation terus menyoroti MND dan kebutuhan untuk mencari perawatan yang berarti dan, suatu hari, obat untuk penyakit yang menghancurkan ini.
“Yayasan telah mengumpulkan dana yang signifikan melalui upaya luar biasa dari para pendukung kami yang luar biasa dan telah berkomitmen #8juta untuk penelitian MND selama ini. Kami juga telah memberikan dana yang cukup besar kepada orang-orang yang hidup dengan MND dan mereka
keluarga untuk membantu mereka menjalani kehidupan yang terpenuhi sebanyak mungkin.
“Dengan semangat dan dorongan Doddie, kami telah berkolaborasi dengan pemangku kepentingan lainnya dalam komunitas MND dan dengan kokoh mendirikan yayasan tersebut sebagai badan amal yang tepercaya, berpengaruh, dan didukung dengan baik.
“Dan visi kami tentang dunia yang bebas dari MND tetap menjadi inti dari strategi kami. Saat kami melihat ke masa depan, kami akan menghormati nama Doddie dan mewujudkan warisannya.
“Masih banyak yang harus dilakukan dan, dengan dukungan Anda, kami akan melanjutkan pekerjaan kami, tetap setia pada nilai dan ambisi pendiri kami.”
