Dave Bexfield on the cover of MS Momentu

My goal with ActiveMSers is to provide practical information on how to stay active (physically, intellectually, and socially)—when traveling, playing in the outdoors, exercising, or just plain enjoying life—regardless of our disease and the sometimes devastating symptoms it throws at us. In the process, I hope to spotlight other active MSers who can provide inspiration. I hope to raise awareness about both the seriousness of multiple sclerosis and that people with MS are also marathoners, midfielders, and mountaineers. And I hope to inspire a worldwide community of ActiveMSers who strive to stay active."
