Day 4: Spread the Word

We're half way through MS Awareness Week, only three more days after today!! Today's task is the easiest of all....Spread the Word. All you have to do is e-mail your friends and family to let them know it's MS Awareness Week. In fact, I've sent out an e-mail to most of you already to forward on to everyone you know!! Every voice matters!!

I know it's not easy to understand what someone with MS may feel like. Since today's task is to spread the word, I want you guys to check out an awesome video that will help you get in the "shoes" of someone with MS and maybe understand what MS patients go through at times or even on a daily basis for some. It's kind of corny at first, but watch the whole thing, the best part is the second half. Just turn your sound up and click the play symbol in the center of the video screen.

One of the biggest difficulties in dealing with MS is trying to explain to your friends and family how you feel. There's really no way for them to understand completely, but hopefully the videos can help a little. Let me know what you guys thought of them!

Once again, I've made it super easy for you guys to complete the task for the day:) And thanks again for all of your participation. I have a good feeling Nicole's Angels will be even BIGGER this year!!

Until tomorrow.....

"Spread the Word."
