Charlie Bird has shared a heartbreaking health update as he admits he’s “at a crossroads”.

The former journalist was diagnosed with motor neurone disease back in 2021 and has been updating his followers ever since.

Capturing the heart of the nation with his positivity and strength, Charlie took to Twitter the other day where he revealed that his health is deteriorating.

“I want to be very honest with everyone who is supporting me,” he began.

“My health is deteriorating and so is my movement. I think I am at a crossroads.

“But I want to continue to extend the hand of friendship.

“And I am going to continue to raise awareness for groups that need support.”

Followers of Charlie were quick to flock to the comment section to wish him well with one writing: “God bless you Charlie, you’re a wonderful human being. Take time for you.”

While another wrote: “Wishing you all the strength in the world. You truly are inspiring despite the obstacles you face helping others.”

Just last month, Charlie shared his joy after legendary singer Bruce Springsteen paid tribute to him during his gig in Dublin.

Taking to social media to share his delight Charlie wrote: “Last evening I was blown away brought to meet Bruce Springsteen backstage before the concert. We had a couple of hugs and I used my voice app to talk to him.”

“Then he dedicated Land of Hope and Dreams to “my friend Charlie Bird” O God Bruce is a great human. My final wish has happened.”
