As some of you may know, I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) in 2007. Though I rarely publicly discuss this disease, I want to share an update on the progression of my condition and the recent clinical prognosis I’ve been given from my medical team. I’ve recently learned of a new therapy that my help me. However, I will need your help to access the therapy.

MS is an autoimmune disease that attacks and destroys the protective coating around the nerves in one’s brain and spinal cord, resulting in severe deterioration of large and fine motor skills causing varying degrees of paralysis. Simple movements become mountainous tasks such as standing up and walking across the room, the inability to grasp a coffee cup, turn a knob on the stove, and becoming more severe creating an inability to swallow, breath, sit up independently (the list goes on) until eventually death due to inability of the body’s immune system to combat typical illnesses, colds, etc.

I put in my donation. When this is all done and over with, let's have a race. I bet I can still outrun you, little sister! (Except if there's a snake in the path, then you'll probably win . . . but only because I stopped to look at it).

Hi Melinda,
I'm a friend of Merri Jo's. You are on my prayer list and I pray you will get the donations needed for this. I have a cousin who also struggles with MS. Take care and believe there is help as God knows what you need and He hears you when you ask. Blessings to you,
