Episode 100: Some of the Best Moments From Our Last 100 Episodes


Welcome to Episode 100! In this special episode, we're talking with Jodi Michele Cooley, the winner of our “Be Our Special Guest on Episode 100” contest! At the age of 7, Jodi became an MS caregiver. And at the age of 34, she received her own MS diagnosis. In one way or another, MS has almost always been a part of Jodi's life. And yet, she is the very definition of the word “resilience.”

We're also re-visiting some of the best moments from some of our most popular interviews. You'll hear about research…you'll learn about MS advocacy…and you'll meet some amazing MS Warriors!

We have a lot to look back on. Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!

Episode 99: Standing Up in MS with Professor Jenny Freeman


My guest is Jenny Freeman, Professor of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation at the University of Plymouth, in the United Kingdom. Professor Freeman's research has appeared in more than 150 journals and publications. And she's the co-author of Multiple Sclerosis Care — A Practical Manual, the reference book for all aspects of MS care. We're going to be talking with Professor Freeman about the just-published results of a clinical trial that I think will add a very effective component to physical rehabilitation for people living with progressive MS.

And if you believe that losing thousands of dollars and gaining no benefit is the worst thing that can go wrong when it comes to unproven stem cell treatments for MS…well, you're not even close. We're talking about how bad it can really get.

We'll also tell you about the new pilot research grants that the National MS Society just announced. You'll learn about a program that offers amazing outdoor adventure experiences to young adults who are living with MS. And did we also mention that these programs are free??? And you'll have an opportunity to participate in a really interesting clinical trial.

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