SAMPLE PERSONAL STORY:

I was diagnosed with MS on October 31 2005. It is a day I will never forget. It was the day that changed my life forever…and for the better! While I may not be able to do all the things I use to I have found joy in activities I would never had tried before. I have become a better, stronger person through my struggle to learn to LIVE with MS.

I love volunteering with the National Multiple Sclerosis Society and working towards a cure for MS. I have met some of the most wonderful people with the best of personalities through the Society. Please support your local MS Bike or Walk to help us move closer to a cure…every little bit helps!
