Well, I did it. I am signed up for the walk happening here in Fort Collins on May 3rd. Multiple Sclerosis is a medical condition that is close to my heart. Though not officially diagnosed, I do deal with the symptoms of MS and hopefully someday I will get out of limboland (but that is another story for another time). This walk raises thousands of dollars to help raise awareness and to help find a cure. As of right now, there is NO CURE for MS. The only drugs that may help prevent further damage are expensive and come with their own side effects. No one knows the true cause of MS, but researchers are working hard to figure the craziness of MS out. It is a nasty disease that can have you feeling fine one moment and falling on the floor the next.
Please help me raise awareness of MS. I refuse to let this disease stop me from doing what I love, and I want to make sure others can do the same. We WILL find a cure someday and this can help. What can you do to help? You can donate, you can walk, you can “virtually walk”, there are a ton of things you can do.
