Chris Wilson has been involved in the EWP industry for many years, from Wreckair to Gillespies to Skyreach. Sadly in the past few years Chris has been struck down with the condition known as ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) a Motor Neuron Disease.

Chris’s symptoms are at the stage where he can no longer walk, feed himself, dress, etc. However, he is still able to eat and talk and has minimal use of his right arm. At the moment, as Chris requires 24 hour care, he is residing in an aged care facility. With treatment it is believed it may prolong his life, give him back some independence, some use in his arms and legs and it would also allow him to go back to living at home and have a somewhat normal life.
