Well here we are, it’s MS Awareness Week (22-28 April). And I feel it is only right to share my own experiences of adapting to life living with the condition.

Firstly, what is MS? Multiple sclerosis is a life-long neurological condition caused by your immune system mistakenly attacking the brain and nerves. Had I heard about MS? Yes. Did I know what it really was? And think it would ever impact me? Absolutely not.

Unfortunately, there is no cure for the condition at present, but medicines and treatments are available to provide some control and to ease some of the numerous symptoms it can cause.
