Each week 200 individuals will me diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. I am especially touched by this video and thought it captured the importance of research, compassion and love. Tricia's words resonate what we all feel when we are dealing with an autoimmune disease. The simple joys in life that most people have can be a struggle for others. Having a family, walking and simple tasks such as driving can really be affected and all it takes is for one of these normal functions to be taken away and our sense of self is altered for the rest of our lives. But, as you see here, people with autoimmune diseases just want to be normal. Live a normal life but we no longer can do that without the assistance of others. Research is vital when it comes to these diseases. Educating others will inspire the younger generations to help fight a disease that will continue to affect so many.
