Growing up my whole life my Mum has suffered from multiple sclerosis. I watched this debilitating disease affect her in so many different ways. Mum was diagnosed when she was only 20. Today, she has lost vision in one eye, feeling in her hands and feet and uses a walking stick.

Most days she is house bound and hasn't worked in over 15 years, while my Dad has had to take numerous days off work to drive her to her appointments over an hour away from home.

Mum is such a strong woman and never complains, yet I know how much she is hurting.

This is why I want to help raise awareness and funds, so those living with MS and their family members can lead a happy and healthy life knowing they have plenty of support.

Thank you for contributing to my fundraising efforts for MS.
