Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
An autoimmune disease, multiple sclerosis (MS) is the result of the body's immune system attacking its central nervous system. MS occurs more frequently in women than in men, and generally in the 20s, 30s and 40s. Although there is no known cure, multiple sclerosis doesn't have to stop you from living forward.
