Women in the community needs knowledge of Multiple Sclerosis (MS). MS is diagnosed in women from the young ages of 20-50 years old. Young women are still raising their children and is struggling to live a normal life with the obstacles and relapses of MS. Some have lived with MS for years before being diagnosed, and once it is diagnosed the disease is already in the primary progression stage. Women need to learn the symptoms, and the effect the disease can have on the body, and the rest of your life.
I am a local, published author of eight novels. My latest is Treading Waters, A Woman Living With, MS, based on a true story with true facts. My daughter was diagnosed with MS a year and a half ago. I had to move in with her family for nine months until she was on her feet again. It was devastating when she was diagnosed because we had no knowledge of MS. Because I am an author, she persuaded me to write a novel that would uplift women self-esteem that is living day to day with MS or any disease with no cure. My book would be helpful to women. The last two pages has FAQ’s that will raise awareness and is helpful for future information.
Thanks,
