empowering women to discover their voice
Happy Monday everyone. Multiple Sclerosis awareness week is upon us. If you aren’t clear as to what MS really is
then you can help the cause by taking a few minutes and learning.
Basically, it is an autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous
system. Here are a few more facts:
1. Multiple sclerosis (MS) affects woman more than men.
2. MS is caused by damage to the myelin sheath, the protective covering that surrounds nerve cells. When this nerve covering is damaged, nerve impulses are slowed down or stopped.
3. MS is a progressive disease, meaning the nerve damage (neurodegeneration) gets worse over time.
