NO ONE SHOULD FACE MS ALONE!
Hey, can you imagine waking up one day with blurred vision in one eye then sudden blackness? Well, that is what happened to me, shortly after I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. Don’t worry the vision in my eye came back (mostly).
Suddenly, my world changed drastically. Being diagnosed with a chronic, incurable lifelong illness was a bitter pill to swallow for a 17-year-old!
Multiple sclerosis is a chronic and often debilitating disease which attacks the central nervous system (the brain, spinal cord (myelin), and optic nerves). It is the most common neurological disease in young adults. Three out of four people living with MS are women.
While feats of endurance are not my forte, I've signed up to the 5KM walk this May to raise awareness and funds to support those living with MS! MS is a hard journey to walk alone come and support me every step of the way.
Join the walk, run or roll & donate to to the MS-Y (messy) situation MS is, let’s smash this goal and raise those schmeckles for a good cause. 💪
With your support, people living with multiple sclerosis can access vital support services, like MSPlus, MS Peer Support and MS Employment Support Programs. Your help also brings new treatments closer to reality.
