Does support look different for a male vs female living with M.S? My husband has recently been diagnosed (he is in his 40's) and I am struggling knowing how to support him.

Many thanks t...

I was actually able to join my first Support Group tonight and it was nice being a part of that. I thought I’d share it if others wanna find the group to join plus, they also have Facebook page as well. Modified by MS PageIf you’re not following the official Modified by MS Facebook page, we invite you to please give it a follow. Special announcements including upcoming special zooms and events, new merch announcements, and unique resources to help you and your loved ones live the best life with multiple sclerosis. https://www.facebook.com/share/12LhMG8PD9e/?mibextid=wwXIfr

I’m still learning lol even how to properly post on here 🙃
