About this Podcast:

We all know that MS is a misunderstood disease that shows up differently for each of us. Each week an episode will be released that'll share the highs and lows of this unpredictable disease. My hope is that these episodes will shed some light for those who are newly diagnosed and those of us who have been living with it for years. Each week we will chat with someone who has been effected by Multiple Sclerosis, whether that be someone who lives with it, a family member, spouse, nurse or friend.
