In 2017, he announced that he had been diagnosed with Motor Neuron Disease (MND), a debilitating condition that affects the nervous system. Despite this devastating news, Weir tackled his illness with the same determination that marked his rugby career. He channeled his energy into raising awareness and funds for MND research, becoming an inspiring advocate and a beacon of hope for others facing similar challenges.
