Hello!

Today, we speak to Rebecca Daniher. Bec is the campaign director of Fight MND and the daughter of Neale Daniher. Her dad, Neale, was named this year's Australian of the Year for his incredible fight against Motor Neurone Disease, defying the average life expectancy of just 27 months.

Today, Bec opens up about the moment she nearly thought she had lost her dad, how she balances her own emotional wellbeing while leading Fight MND, and the special memories she’s been able to make with her dad.
