Progressive MS Day


On March 28, 2018, the MS community will come together to observe the first-ever Progressive MS Day!  We want to demonstrate support, offer education, and call for more research to advance care, reduce disability for those living with the most debilitating forms of the disease.

We hope the MS community will join us in establishing Progressive MS Day as an annual event.

As Progressive MS Day grows each year, we also hope it will spur new research that advances care and can eventually lead to medicines that will reduce disability for this community.

I do not have progressive MS however MS can become progressive.

What a wonderful idea. I hope it spreads to here too.
I have moved from relapsing remitting MS to secondary progressive. And hope it stops there.

I totally agree - we need to be made aware of a lot of different diseases and this is a good one. We need to help each other with that. sandie

MS is terrible. My best friends son has progressive MS and although it has only been about 6 yrs since learning he had it he has gone down hill so fast. Still up and pushing to live life daily but headed to that wheelchair fast. So terrible. I am sorry you have to deal with this.

That is a good idea. I hope it spreads around the world and more research and medicines can be made.
