Together, they talk about how MS can disrupt your plans, how chronic illness can make it hard to even think about purpose, and why rediscovering meaning often begins with honesty, surrender, and self-awareness.Tim opens up about the frustration of having to do life differently after MS, and Michelle shares how her experience as both a pharmacist and MS patient shaped the way she cares for others.
