The NMSS has many events....but I particularly have fond memories of driving my scooter the entire 3 mile walk route....with a bunch of my family and friends walking beside me....during the MS Walks for many years.
We started going to the MS Walks when my kids needed to take turns riding in my lap on my scooter...really young kids....20 years ago. We really had Fun!
The National MS Society has been good to me...as I give a

I bet the kids miss riding in your lap during the MS Walks. Now they have to walk it..
Absolutely, Kim... Great organization... Have you ever blogged about your entire story--when you found out you had MS, your symptoms then, etc.???? I'd love to read it.
My friend, Reida, who has MS had a rough time getting diagnosed.. They were telling her that there was nothing wrong with her and that she was making all of her symptoms up... Gads!

You ARE making awareness, I had no idea there was a week for it.
i bet the kids liked riding with you. what a great memory. and here you are 20 years later, which is the blessing of it all.
Your blog is making me aware of MS
Thanks for making us aware of a cause dear to you and so many others. Have a great week!
We hear ya' hollerin! :)
I was diagnosed during our MS Awareness Week many years ago. And yes, the MS Society does a fine job here as well. I now provide peer support to other people with the dread disease, an initiative which I wish had existed with my diagnosis.
I had no idea that they had a week set aside for MS! Wow! That is great

Sounds like a good fun week !
I need to bust out my orange tee shirt! Those MS walks are incredible. I have done the 50K walk three times. Hard, but so worth it.
its good that you blog about it. My country, not many knew this
It's so good for us to have a week to learn more about this disease. I had a dear friend who had it and I so admired her determination to live life to the fullest. I hope this week is a blessing to you as well.
I just signed up for the MS bike ride again this year. I'd like to do the walk with you if I was closer:D
May this be a great success!
I hope you can still join in the walks for MS. Take care keep smiling.
A great thing to do. MS is a terrible disease.. Blessings sent to you with a hug, keep seeing all the positive and your heart will feel lighter. xx
