Pam Roller is a 54 year-old woman who is extremely ill, and has been suffering from a severe and progressive form of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) since 2002. Over the years, Pam has tried many conventional medications to try and halt the progression of her disease, however none of these efforts have worked and Pam continues to suffer. By 2009, she experienced many flare-ups in her condition, leaving her very weak and sometimes hospitalized for weeks at a time. She tried everything possible to treat her MS; from modifying her diet, taking special supplements, spending years in physical therapy, and working hard to increase her muscle strength. She continues therapeutic riding lessons to maintain her core body strength. She has given numerous medications known on the market for MS, a good, long try. Unfortunately, none of these regimes have worked for Pam, and over the years her health has continued to spiral downwards and Pam desperately needs your help.
Pam grew up in Mount Healthy, Ohio, a suburb of Cincinnati, and graduated from Mount Healthy High School. Pam worked hard and received a college degree from Thomas More College, then attended Chase College of Law and eventually found her calling as a mediator and teacher. Pam worked for the government for 30 years and continued to work until October of 2015. Pam’s MS has progressed and she is now unable to work, and she grows sicker each and every day. She can no longer attend church regularly or even volunteer to help others. No longer able to walk without a walker, Pam relies on a wheelchair, suffers balance and vision problems, putting her at high risk of injury from falling. Even the most mundane tasks are difficult for Pam and her biggest desire, to be able to play and spend time with her eleven grandchildren, is temporary on hold.

I've been home for almost 2 weeks. I can see a small difference but it is a step in the right direction. Started physical therapy again and it is harder than I remember.
