Why We Fight MS
Having multiple sclerosis means that you may not be able to walk when you wake up. Or that you may suddenly have impaired vision. The many symptoms of MS are different, for everyone – the only certainty is that it will affect yet another person every hour of every day.
Why I Walk
I walk to support research into the cause and cure for multiple sclerosis. I walk so that future generations may be spared.
The National Multiple Sclerosis Society will use funds collected from the MS Walk to not only support research for a cure tomorrow, but also to provide programs which address the needs of people living with MS today. Because we choose to walk for those who sometimes can’t, because we choose to donate to the MS Walk, we are getting closer to the hour when no one will have to hear the words, “You have MS.”
