MS Awareness week is here......

Hi everyone! Can you believe it's already MS Awareness Week again??!! This year I couldn't find a calendar of things to do each day of the week. The reason is, this year's motto is "Make Your Mark 365." We want you to make your MS mark all year round, not just this week. But, here are some ideas to get you started this week and hopefully you'll carry on throughout the whole year!

Here's the first way.......

ADVOCATE
–verb (used with object)

1.	to speak or write in favor of; support or urge by argument; recommend publicly

–noun

2.	a person who speaks or writes in support or defense of a person, cause, etc. (usually fol. by of): an advocate of peace.

3.	a person who pleads for or in behalf of another; intercessor.

4.	a person who pleads the cause of another in a court of law.

Any day now Congress will start making decisions about crucial funding for MS research. This legislation would invest $15 million to support MS researchers whose discoveries could hold the key to new treatments or a cure.
