March Message Board Forum of the Month:
MS AWARENESS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Are you doing anything
special this m
onth to help make people more aware of MS? Let us know
what's going on in your community, in your NMSS chapter, or in
your own life. Come to post, come to read, get involved! Let's
work toward a world where MS Awareness isn't even
necessary.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Get the Scoop with MS Perspectives™ Magazine
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This excellent publication is available in
both electronic and paper formats. A subscription is
FREE!
The features are well-written, easily
understood and very informative. Not your typical MS
magazine, it presents information relevant to the perspective
of we who live with
MS.
In the pages of MS Perspectives™, you’ll find
articles about how to manage your disease and its symptoms
(like fatigue), the latest theories about what causes MS, tips
on how to get the most from the treatments and devices you’re
prescribed, and how to live as full and normal a life as
possible. It is hoped that learning more about MS
and
the many advances health care practitioners have made
in understanding and treating this disease will help you to
better manage the course of your own
illness.
If you have MS you need all the well-researched,
valid information you can
get.
