“Life Wasn’t Supposed to Look Like This”

When I was younger, I imagined my life unfolding in a certain way. I had plans, ambitions, a picture in my head of the future I was working toward. Then MS came into my life — and that picture shattered. I didn’t just lose parts of my health. I lost certainty. I lost the freedom of not having to th...

Dancing with My Shadow



Multiple sclerosis is...
waking up one day walking with ease,
and the next, your legs refuse to follow.
It’s going to bed in pain
after waking with hope.
It’s living in a body
that no longer always listens
and learning to love it anyway.
It’s a battle the mirror doesn’t show,
but your body feels i...
