Story
I'm fundraising for MS Together because in 2020 when I was diagnosed with Relapsing Remitting Multiple Sclerosis I couldn't even say these words without crying. MS Together has introduced me to a community of others all going through the same illness and I have met some incredible people and made some genuine friends for life.
This disease can affect anyone, but it is most commonly diagnosed in women in their mid-20s. It's unpredictable and unfair but with the community of MS Together I have been able to see past the doom and gloom of life with a chronic illness and be myself again.
My MS causes me fatigue, brain fog, and I lose feeling in my limbs on my right hand side. I'm so happy with my body for letting me still be so mobile and to celebrate I'm going to try to run 13.1 miles on Sunday 28th May 2023. I'll be running knowing that around the country so many other members of MS Together are also completing their own challenges for the team 💪
MS Together is a UK-based charity which exists to provide services of support and advice to people affected by MS, with a particular focus on those aged 18-35 living with MS.
The photo gallery features some of the wonderful members of the group who I have had the pleasure of meeting in the past few years. Each and every one of us is suffering with Multiple Sclerosis differently but thanks to MS Together we have each other 💗
