World MS Day 2012 is on its way!
Sorry we’ve been so quiet. Here’s what we’ve been up to the past two months…
Plans for the 2012 campaign began in September 2011 when World MS Day (WMSD) was re-launched as a public facing awareness campaign with a new strap-line, ‘1000 faces of MS’, and a new theme ‘Living with MS’.
The World MS Day working group, which is made up of representatives from MS organisations in Argentina, Australia, Estonia, Germany, India, Spain, and the USA, have been working together with a top creative agency to design a fun and engaging campaign that will appeal to new audiences.
Unfold the Mystery
The 2012 campaign uses clever riddles and a sense of mystery to engage the public and raise awareness of MS. This campaign will run for three weeks in the run up to World MS Day. We will need your help to make WMSD videos and messages go viral. Look out for more information about how you can get involved later on in the year.
1000 faces of MS
Alongside the awareness campaign we wanted to create a dialogue between people affected by MS and the public. People living with, and affected by MS will be invited to upload a digital postcard outlining what ‘Living with MS’ means to them. This site will remain secret until World MS Day when it will be revealed to the world as an evolving wall of stories and pictures.
To create your own postcard visit the new look World MS Day website from the first week of May 2012.

Hi, Im from Mexico, and i’ve been diagnosed 2 years ago whit MS, i tryied to make social movement whit the help of a civil asociaton, in hope to create a hospital to attend people whith the same condition, it was going all well actually pretty well, unfortunately some corruption apeard inside the civil asociation.
In the action of this campaign, a doctor called José Luis Quintanar Stephano contacted us, he is a neruro biologist from our state, and he seems to had found in a true accident a way of treatment to MS and whit some more investigation a POSSIBLE CURE.
We tryied realy hard to find somme suport to continue his investigation, by all ways, but it seems that there are somme big interest getting in the way in here.
As you know this cintific process cant be financiated from a 2 person paid.
So, this is why i write, I need International help to support this investigation, he has publish articles nacional and international wide about somme of his studies, and findings.
It is in fact a possible cure or treatment.
Please contact us.

Happy upcoming World MS Day to everyone! It was an honor to carry a flag for the first ever World MS Day to the summit of Mt. Everest in 2009. It is once again time to continue raising awareness in 2012. We can never stop until we find a cure! Can’t wait to follow the journey this year. In the world of MS, we are all one. -Lori Schneider

The world MS day is a good move.
I am able to manage all the activities eventhough I am declared orthopaedically handicapped upto 90%. I move with my wheelchair and do all household activities.
MS is not a problem if the environment is designed properly.
