FERNANDO RICKSEN
The Final Battle
Life with MND
By Veronika Ricksen and Vincent de Vries
In 2013 Rangers legend Fernando Ricksen is diagnosed with the deadly muscle disease MND and has only four months to live. How hopeless it may seem, that doesn’t mean he gives up. Fernando fights the disease like he played football: he goes in with his leg stretched out.
Vincent de Vries witnesses the decline of his friend from nearby. The result is a penetrating and intimate portrait of a man who looks death in the eye for six long years.

Would be a harrowing read.

Can never begin to imagine what he and his family went through.

Hope they do very well with the sales.

Just finished the book fighting spirit. Bit disappointed won’t go into it why as people got to it read and have own thoughts. In the epilogue tell the start of MND.
Will get the final battle as well. Think it will be a very sad read. Great Ranger loved the club.
