Episode 113: The Things You Should Be Doing When You've Been Diagnosed with MS with Montel Williams

My guest this week is TV personality, Montel Williams. Since receiving his MS diagnosis in 1999, Montel has been a highly visible advocate for people living with MS. We're talking to Montel about his initial reaction to his own MS diagnosis, and what advice he would give to someone who was diagnosed with MS today (HINT: it's great advice!). We'll also talk to Montel about My MS Second Act, a new initiative that he's helping to launch and that you can get involved in. We're also talking about the National MS Society's $14.6 million dollar investment in 43 new MS research projects. We'll tell you about a new study that focuses on how and when people living with MS consider reducing their hours at work or even leaving the workforce. You'll hear about an MS research update featuring 4 renowned MS experts that will be live-streamed later this week. We're talking about the upcoming MS Summit on Nov. 9th in Chicago. And we'll tell you about a great one-minute animation about MS and self-esteem from the MS International Federation. We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??! ___________ Montel Williams Helps Launch My MS Second Act :22
