Episode 222: The Poetry of MS with Tamara Kaye Sellman

Tamara Kaye Sellman is a poet, short story writer, journalist, and essayist. So, when she was diagnosed with MS in 2013, Tamara did what she does best -- she began writing about it. That writing turned into Intention Tremor, a book of poetry and prose written over the five years following Tamara's diagnosis.

In this special episode, we'll talk with Tamara about how she chose to artistically interpret being diagnosed with MS. We'll discuss why she's quite literally invested in MS research. And Tamara will even share some of her poetry with us.

We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!

Welcome to a special episode! :22
