Episode 371: A Difference-Making Mobility Device with Dee Ecklund and BE Alink


Listen Later

In the seven years that I've been hosting RealTalk MS, no one has ever described a mobility device as life-changing. That is until listener Dee Ecklund reached out to tell me about her experience with the Alinker. 

One of my goals in producing this podcast is to introduce the RealTalk MS listener community to people who are difference-makers. And Dee's initial DM led to my conversation with Dee and the inventor of the Alinker, a true difference-maker, BE Alink. 

The National MS Society's 3rd annual Hispanic/Latinx MS Experience Summit is just two days away! We're sharing all the details, including how you can register for this free virtual event.

And I'm sharing my thoughts following attending the University of Pittsburgh's bi-annual caregiver research conference.

We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!
