Episode 244: Financial Planning For People Living with MS with Financial Advisor Dick Bell

Planning for your financial future is good advice for everyone. But when you're living with MS, financial planning is an important part of the game plan for living your best life.

Joining me to talk about the things you'll want to keep in mind as you develop your personal financial roadmap is Dick Bell, a professional financial advisor who has worked with more than 600 clients who are living with MS.

We're also talking about how Russia's invasion of Ukraine is impacting MS clinical research.

We'll tell you about a study that's focusing on a novel approach to promoting remyelination.

We're sharing the results of a study that identified a biomarker that may predict future MS disease progression.

And we'll share survey results that show all the ways that MS can impact life.
