AVONEX Stories

The people you'll meet in this section enjoy active lifestyles while living with MS. Each has a passion—gardening, performing, cheering, exploring, teaching, dancing, cycling, and serving the community—and each is determined not to let MS keep them from doing the things they love. Their motto is, "I have MS, but MS doesn't have me."
