“I’m in the driver’s seat… but I need a team behind me.” — Monica Proctor Wilson

When Monica was diagnosed with MS, she learned quickly that living with the disease meant becoming her own advocate.

Years later, when her son Brian began experiencing symptoms — double vision, unexplained fatigue, uncertainty that stretched through test after test — she found herself supporting him through the same maze of questions she had once faced.

Their experiences look different, but their message is the same: no one should have to navigate MS alone. Across the country, people facing a new diagnosis, searching for trustworthy information, or trying to understand unfamiliar symptoms turn to a community that truly gets it.

They find people who understand the concerns, the hard decisions, and the strength it takes to keep moving forward. Your generosity helps ensure that individuals and families can access resources, education, and connection when they need it most — whether it’s understanding treatment options, learning about MRI access, or finding a supportive community of peers.

Your gift today provides real help to real people navigating MS in their own way.

Thank you for supporting the MS community and making a meaningful impact at the end of this year — and into the next.
