Walk MS - Spring 2014

January 23, 2014

Walk MS connects people living with MS and those who care about them. It’s an experience unlike any other — a day to come together, to celebrate the progress we’ve made and to show the power of our connections. When you participate in Walk MS, the funds you raise give hope to the more than 26,000 people living with MS in Texas. The dollars raised support promising research to stop the disease, restore function that has been lost and to end MS forever. Your dollars also help fund local programs for people living with MS.

Find a walk near you and register today for a SPRING 2014 event!

About Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple sclerosis is an unpredictable, often disabling disease of the central nervous system that disrupts the flow of information within the brain, and between the brain and body. Symptoms range from numbness and tingling to blindness and paralysis. The progress, severity and specific symptoms of MS in any one person cannot yet be predicted, but advances in research and treatment are leading to better understanding and moving us closer to a world free of MS. Most people with MS are diagnosed between the ages of 20 and 50, with at least two to three times more women than men being diagnosed with the disease. MS affects more than 2.3 million people worldwide.
