Stephen Hawking developed motor neurone disease when he was in his early 20s. Most patients with the condition die within five years, and according to the Motor Neurone Disease Association, average life expectancy after diagnosis is 14 months. “Stephen Hawking is a fascinating case, and neurologists always puzzle over it. The case is fascinating because of the early onset and the length of time the disease has run,” one neurologist said.
“The average duration of survival from diagnosis is about 14 months, but it varies enormously,” says Professor Nigel Leigh, professor of clinical neurology at King's College, London, and director of the King's MND Care and Research Centre. His treatment included intensive physiotherapy to loosen the muscles which kept him alive for 40 years which seems to be a medical miracle.
