    ]]>     931     Trailer - This Is MS https://omny.fm/shows/this-is-ms/trailer What is MS? If someone asked you ... would you be able to explain it? Host, Andrea Dunn had no idea what Multiple Sclerosis was until she was diagnosed with it in 2010 at age 31. Having MS is scary. It’s unpredictable and difficult to explain because you can’t always physically see its impact. Canada has one of the highest rates of MS in the world, yet people know so little about this disease.  THIS IS MS, the podcast aims to change listeners’ understanding of the frequently invisible disease by delivering the inspirational stories of those living with – and often thriving despite – the illness. With support from the MS Society of Canada, THIS IS MS launches Thursday, May 21 with new episodes released every two weeks thereafter.
