When you have MS, you get it. You understand when others don't feel well even though they look fine. You go about your day in pain or maybe with some numbness or fatigue, amongst many other MS symptoms. For others, MS is obvious. They are confined to a wheelchair and maintain their kickass ability to keep their head up. MS affects every single person differently. That's the trivial nature of the disease, why it affects some so drastically and others not as much. It's a beast by nature and has the ability to make even the strongest person weak.
One MSer in particular, Jason DaSilva, made a documentary about his dealings with MS. It's called When I Walk. Since a blogger I absolutely adore has already given an amazing synopsis of this film (Wheelchair Kamikaze) I'm going to redirect you to his site, where you can read about this inspiring film that airs on PBS today, June 23, 2014 (check your listings for showtimes). If you can't get it in your area, it will be available on PBS.org for you to watch starting June 24 and going until July 23.
As I promised, here's the Wheelchair Kamikaze's synopsis on When I Walk.
