Today we chat with Annette Evans. As a relatively private person Annette reached out to share story on MS Understood, after listening to the podcast and getting something out of each one. She thought that if she's got so much out of it, then someone might get something from her story. We chat about being a registered nurse and how that impacted her awareness around her diagnosis. We also talked about why Annette and her family decided it was time for her to stop work. Soon after her diagnosis Annette and her fiancé at the time decided to return home from their working holiday in Scotland and travelled home through Asia, we chatted about why that was important and how she managed her new diagnosis. We talked about if her life looked very different now to what she imagined pre-diagnosis.

I'm honoured to be able to share stories from people living with MS from all works of life from all over the world. Something you could do to help me out is give me a five star review, this helps others to be exposed to the podcast. and may just reached a newly diagnosed person when they really needed it. Alright let's dive in to todays chat.
