Support my challenge to leave MS behind!

I’m taking part in The May 50K challenge this May to raise funds for life-changing research into multiple sclerosis!

MS strikes young people in the prime of their lives. The average age of diagnosis is only 30 years old, and there is no known cure.

Please make a donation and support my challenge to leave MS where it belongs, behind us.

Your donation will support research into the prevention, treatment and finding a cure for multiple sclerosis to change lives.

Thank you!

My snowflake journey

🧡So I have Multiple Sclerosis (MS) . .🧡 It is a little bit of a read - apologies 🧡 . 😬I don’t personally know what it is like to get hit with a tonne of bricks, but I think when the words “Multiple Sclerosis confirmed” came out of my Drs mouth, I imagine that the feeling would be quite similar. . Lets go back. At the start of lockdown, when I escaped to the farm, I noticed that I had loss feelings in the forefinger and thumb, which over the course of a week extended to my whole hand and back of my arm… Off to the Drs I went who sent me for a neck MRI. . Neck MRI came back with the notes of “Lesions” and that a full brain/spine MRI was required to RULE OUT MS- which is exactly where my brain went to – we are GOING to RULE it out. I did not know much of MS, nor was I looking into it online (the #1 thing my Dr told me NOT to do). I had convinced myself that I wouldn’t need to know about MS as it will come back negative… Whoops. 🤦🏻‍♀️ . August 3rd, a day I was never expecting. MS confirmed. After the phone call ended, I remember feeling overwhelmed, confused, mad, frustrated… but then something weird happened. I felt hope, positivity and a sense of relief. While the news wasn’t easy to hear, it was nice to finally have answers for many things that were going on in my body. . 🦋Life doesn’t always make sense but the universe does have a plan & I know things will be okay. I’m grateful for my support system and thankful for incredible MS team that are now surrounding me. Really couldn’t do any of this without their help and love. . So here I am, nearly 4 years into being diagnosed, trying to make this all FEEL NORMAL!! As this is the normal for me! Which I think I have generally done pretty well. MS is the same disease it was 10-30years ago HOWEVER THE MINDSET HAS CHANGED 💯 & I am so grateful for all that has been achieved & the positive mindset that now surrounds it. 🚨 This is why I am still Fundraising for the MS 50K on my mission to raise that $1000, towards the MS crew that support THOUSANDS of people living with MS around Australia!! A group, that without, I don’t think I would feel this accepting of what my future may bring... cause let’s face it... what do ANY of us know what’s going to happen to us tomorrow?! All we can do is live for today! Live for the NOW🧡 & most importantly: . 👏DO👏WHAT👏MAKES👏YOU👏HAPPY👏 . #multiplesclerosis #thisisme #thisisms #mssupport #thiswillnotdefineme #positivevibes
