I'm running the 2027 TCS London Marathon for MS International Federation (MSIF).

In 2024 our lives as a family changed forever, my son just 18 years lost vision in his left eye. Within 72 hours he was diagnosed with RRMS. This gutted me, I had so many unanswered questions, and so many unknowns. Would my son ever be able to see again? Continue with college? What would life be like for him? Those questions have since been answered by some of the best doctors in the country. Yes, he will see. In fact he regained all of his vision. Yes, he will graduate college. December 2026, he will graduate from college with a 4.0, he never missed a beat. Life? Normal. He is thriving in spite of his diagnosis. His care team assured me that while they could not cure his MS, they could stop it from progressing. We are the lucky ones. We have access to quality healthcare professionals and the ability to travel to get the best care. Others are not so fortunate. I truly believe that the fast actions of the doctors are what helped my son rebound so quickly. My goal is to help families who are impacted by this scary diagnosis and to raise awareness that while we are blessed to have access to care and treatments, others are not so lucky. Through no fault of their own, simply because of their location or circumstances beyond their borders.

Together, with our members, we have committed to increase funding for vital MS research worldwide, improve access to effective MS treatment, and support everyone with MS - no matter where they live.
