Posted on March 21st, 2012

From art exhibitions of work by artists with MS in the Czech republic, to the handing out of flyers in a public park in Japan, from a public rally and and musical show in Peru, to a medical seminar and press conference in Tunisia, MS organisations all over the world are gearing up to raise awareness of MS for World MS Day this year. If your group or organisation is making plans for World MS Day we want to hear from you. If not, it’s not too late to get involved. You could set up an exhibition in your town hall or square, you could display posters at your school, university or workplace, or you could spread the word to your family and friends…

Living with MS for 14 years in GuanDong Province, China

Posted on March 19th, 2012

Kathy wrote to us to tell us about her younger sister Sarah who has had MS for 14 years. At the beginning she recovered quickly from relapses and could have a normal life including going to work, but after 5 years, she couldn’t work anymore. Now she cannot walk very well and may relapse if she is tired or gets virus’ like the flu. She stays at home now but she is healthy and stable. We all love her so much, she is such a lovely sweet person. This year, I will try my best to find campaign team around GuanDong province China, to raise awareness among Chinese people about MS and WMSD, and to get their support.

Laura and her son Matt have MS in common

Laura and her son Matt

Laura who was diagnosed with MS in 2004 contacted us to tell us about what she and her son would be doing to celebrate World MS Day this year. She said,

I’ll be at home for World MS Day 2012, and Skype with my son Matt at the end of his work day. I was diagnosed in 2004 and Matt was diagnosed in March of 2011… We are both on the same shots and both had the same first symptoms. This was not something I wanted in common with my son, but we have learned to accept the hand we were both dealt.

If you’d like to tell us what you will be doing for World MS Day this year please email our Campaigns Manager, Ayesha at ayesha@msif.org
