Burrow was just 37 and had three children under the age of eight with wife Lindsey when he made the announcement on December 19 2019 that he had MND.
Former rugby league player Rob Burrow was among several players diagnosed with motor neurone disease in recent years.
The charity says these nerves – motor neurones – control muscle activity such as walking, speaking and swallowing. How long people live with the condition varies but some survive for years, and even decades, such as Professor Stephen Hawking, who lived for more than 50 years after being diagnosed aged 21.
