'By the time that you watch this I will no longer be here'
A poignant final message from the Leeds Rhinos legend and MND campaigner recorded before his death for a special BBC documentary 'There's Only One Rob Burrow'
@BBCOne@BBCiPlayer
We're so proud to have @Rob7Burrow as a patron of the MND Association.
Rob, his wife Lindsey, and children, Macy, Maya and Jackson, have selflessly shared their family journey with #MND.
It's inspired so many others to take action 🧡
We'll never be able to thank them enough.
@Rob7Burrow Rob you’ve raised so much awareness about MND and you’re a true inspiration. My husband was diagnosed with it around the same time as yourself and fought it . Sadly he lost his battle . To the next 4 years 💙
Our 'Special Recognition' award goes to Rob and Lindsey Burrow and Kevin Sinfield 💜
The rugby league legend, his wife and best friend have raised awareness and millions of pounds for MND-related causes. ✨

#EnglandRL looking forward to the opening of the Rugby League World Cup today. Please get behind and support our rugby league heroes! Enjoy the tournament 🦁 🏴
He's one of the most famous Rugby League players of all time however, @Rob7Burrow's biggest battle has been away from the rugby field. In 2019 Rob was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease & given just 2 years to live. Two & a half years on, Rob is continuing his fight to survive.
@NeilBrownJr @Richard_Schiff Amazing to see all the different characters you play @NeilBrownJr but there is a teeny part of me that slips back into ….. that’s bravo 2 lol 😝
