    This is incredible. I’ve had 2 friends grow up with one of their parents suffering through MS. It is one of the cruelest diseases I’ve ever seen. Imagine eradicating it! I get bummed out nonstop… but, this is truly a giant step forward.

      Agreed, my mom had MS and it was brutal from her 50s til the end. I grew up terrified that I would inherit it but hopeful of a treatment. I’m so very glad to see that we’re finally making good strides to treating this horrible disease.
