Testimonials

"Can Do MS is the way medicine should be. At the program, I learned how to manage my symptoms, allowing me to continue to work full-time. My husband and I communicate frequently and deal with MS as a team - our relationship is stronger than ever! And Can Do MS gave me the courage to start a family. Zoey is 2 years old now and I love every single day with her." ~ Nikki

"I attended a Can Do MS program right after my diagnosis. Doing so empowered me to be more proactive about my health and understand how to best navigate my life with this disease. I'm more aware of potential red flags and better at advocating for my needs. This program took an unsettling, stressful situation and showed me the path forward." ~Jeff
