MS doesn't only affect individuals. It affects families. And that's probably most clear when we're talking about pediatric MS. The National MS Society estimates that there are about 5,000 diagnosed cases of pediatric MS in the United States and less than 10,000 cases worldwide, but those numbers become far less important when your child is one of those diagnosed cases. We're taking a deep dive into pediatric MS with Hannah Schnitzler, who lives with pediatric MS, Hannah's mom, Melissa Fisher, and pediatric MS expert Dr. Brenda Banwell.       We're also talking about study results that show a simple sugar that's available over the counter is effective in preventing myelin degeneration in the mouse model of MS. And we'll tell you how a research team at the University of Chicago went about designing a novel MS therapy that's been demonstrated to promote myelin repair and even stop MS from developing in the mouse model of MS.    You'll hear about the first oral disease-modifying therapy that's been approved to treat active secondary progressive MS in England, Wales, and Scotland. And we'll tell you how you can be a part of future MS research projects.   We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!
