MS Ireland launched the results of the comprehensive “My MS My Needs” survey on World MS Day at a briefing in the AV Room of Leinster House to Oireachtas members, all eager to deepen their understanding of the challenges faced by the over 10,000 individuals living with MS in Ireland.

In early 2023, MS Ireland undertook a comprehensive survey aimed at delving into the experiences and needs of young adults aged 18 to 35 living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). The survey, which 126 people responded to, sought to gauge awareness of and engagement with MS Ireland, experiences at the time of diagnosis, challenges faced, and suggestions for improvement. 

We are thrilled to share the wonderful news that, thanks to your participation and support, MS Ireland's Readathon 2023 raised an incredible €248,993!

This blog title gives me anxiety. What does a “better me” mean? Should I be writing an article like the many I’ve seen where people tell stories about how better their life is since MS diagnosis and how much they have achieved? People climbing mountains or running marathons? I have read a lot where people seem grateful for MS. I’m happy for them but let's get one thing straight from the start - I am not grateful for my diagnosis. MS has in no way improved my life. It sucks and any of the positive things that have come from it, like my learning mindfulness and becoming a calmer person, I like to think I would have discovered in time anyway.
