Today on MS Understood we chat with MS advocate Kelly Wright. Kelly's mum passed away from a common cold due to weakness caused by her multiple sclerosis, when Kelly was just 16. Even after having lived with it for her life, she still put her symptoms down to a pinched nerve. Kelly moved across the world to manage her temperature sensitive, and wears the highest heals she can because her feet are numb. In fact she wore gorgeous red stilettos on a fundraising walk across the Great Wall of China. We talk about how the grief of diagnosis never goes away.
