New Opportunities Are Knocking!

> Several months ago, soon after I started Gilenya, a nurse for my neurologist told me that there was a program for patients to possibly speak at events to discuss MS and being on Gilenya. I left my appointment thinking how cool it would be to do that. I thought about how it would go giving a speech all the way home. I was so excited! Well, fast forward a couple more months and I received a invitation in the mail from Gilenya to "share my story." I had an hour long phone interview and explained how my life has been for the last 8 years of having MS. It went so well! It's amazing to remember those hard times that I've had and how putting my faith in God has gotten me through a those times. Well, they contacted me 2 days later to ask me to go to Atlanta for speech training! They want me to speak at live events! So, next month I will attend this training to prepare me telling my story to other patients and anyone else that wants to listen. I'm super pumped and grateful for this exciting new adventure!!
