As part of our A to Z of MS series, Rosie takes us to the letter N. For her, N is for Nature — from the roar of the Atlantic to a garden buzzing with life, the outdoors is where she feels most herself.

Living with MS has its challenges, to say the least. One of those difficulties – one that isn’t talked about much – is our susceptibility to other conditions and diseases because of MS.

On this month’s Unspeakable Bits webinar, join our host Trevis L Gleason and guest Professor Hugh Kearney of University College Dublin for a discussion on "MS And...".

They explore what some of these potential coexisting conditions might be, what to do if you’re living with one, and how you might lower the risk or manage them better in day-to-day life.

As part of our A to Z of MS series, Emma takes us to the letter M. For her, M is for Mental Load — that invisible weight of lists, chores, and responsibilities that never seems to clock off, especially when MS is part of the mix.

Louise Power, a mother of two from Ballina, Co. Mayo, is using her experience of living with multiple sclerosis (MS) to raise awareness and encourage understanding of hidden disabilities. Through the MS Readathon, Louise hopes to inspire others to support people living with MS and to help fund vital services provided by MS Ireland.

MS Ireland is supporting the HSE Dublin and North East Patient and Service User Council recruitment and encouraging people living with multiple sclerosis, their families, and carers to get involved.

Join us for our next Unspeakable bits Webinar at 19:00 on Thursday, 23rd October for "MS And..".

As part of our A to Z of MS series, Nadia takes us to the letter M. For her, M is for Metamorphosis — a reflection on change, resilience, and finding strength amid the shifting landscapes of both Dublin and life with MS.
