What does this mean?

Motor neurone disease causes a rapid deterioration of the motor neurons. These are the nerve cells in the brain, brain stem and spinal cord, which are responsible for the movement of the body. The disease advances quite quickly and leads to severe disability and death usually within three to four years.

Unfortunately there is no treatment that can alter the outcome of this serious condition.
