In 2016, at the age of 26, I was diagnosed with MS. The only good thing about being diagnosed was that I was one of the lucky ones. I had easily detectable symptoms, great doctors and it was found early and as a result, was treated early. Aside from my MS, I’m fit and healthy and MS rarely effects me. But at the end of the day, I still have this degenerative disease and so do 26,000 other Australians. I’m riding on the coattails of fundraisers before me who have helped fund research into the medication that is saving my life. Since 2000, the treatment options for MS increased from only 1 to 12 available treatments today, and that’s all thanks to research. So I’m trekking! Across my favourite country to raise money for MS research and because at this point in my life, and hopefully always, I still have a functioning body that can. The team at Kiss Goodbye to MS lives and breathes all things MS research. Your support will help them do what they do best, keep funding life-changing research to ultimately find a cure for MS. Please donate to Kiss Goodbye to MS.
