I know of some members who never even heard of Multiple Sclerosis until they were diagnosed with it. I know of one individual who asked their doctor if this meant she was one of "Jerry's Kids"!
Personally, my mom and Richard Pryor were my MS reference points. It never even occurred to me that you don't have to wind up as bad as that.
Now there are people like Montel, Jack Osbourne, Ann Romney and other non-celebrities you might have thought of when you heard the words, "you have MS". I knew about Annette Funicello at the time because of my diagnosis because she made a movie about it. However, she was not visible in the media at that time and that worried me...a lot.
Just curious, guys! Thanks.
