Ballymena Academy Past Pupils’ Association held their Centenary Gala Ball at Galgorm Resort & Spa on the 7th October. It was a fantastic occasion enjoyed by past pupils of the school young and not so young alike. We are grateful to Mayor Alderman Gerardine Mulvenna for taking time out of her busy schedule to support the Association on this important occasion.

We are grateful to all those who provided raffle prizes and auction items which allowed us to raise more funds for school projects and our chosen charity for the evening, My Name is Doddie, supporting Motor Neurone Disease. If you like the video, please share with your friends and any past pupils of the school that you may know. We would like to see as many past pupils and friends of the school as possible coming to one of our events throughout the year.

Next up - the Ballymena Academy Christmas Fair! ... See MoreSee Less

Noelle💗

In December my health took a turn for the worse I became very weak fast and could not even eat When I say fast I mean going from eating a full plate of food to three days later not being able to drink a a sip of water I went to VA hospital emergency room for dehydration and figure they schedule me for a feeling tube placement They admitted me and two weeks later I woke up to my standing over me in the hospital room this occurred during my second or third drug holiday from Radicava Again no way to know if what I experienced was a side effect When I was discharged I was completely paralyzed So i started on Ayurvedic treatment from Natural Herbs Centre as time went on movement returned to my legs and to my arms and hands Able to hold my head up and strength has returned I give credit to God and NHC for my recovery Almost forgot to mention I was on 24 hours ventilation Now only use vent at night and during naps Was diagnosed in 2021 with ALS, I urge you to seek out naturalherbscentre.com. We're a little scared to tell everyone because some people might not believe us, since there's no cure for ALS. But when I saw this post, I decided to share our story. This treatment is a breakthrough!
