Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disease that attacks the central nervous system. According to walkMS.org, symptoms can "range from numbness and tingling to blindness and paralysis." The majority of people suffering from multiple sclerosis are women, and the disease affects about 2.3 million people throughout the world.

You can learn more about multiple sclerosis and the National MS Society by going online to nationalmssociety.org. According to walkMS.org, Minnesota is home to the very first walk for MS, which took place in 1988. Today there is an event in every state in the U.S.

The Faribault Walk for MS will take place this Saturday at the Shattuck-St. Mary's Dane Family Fieldhouse. Registration begins at 9:30AM. Register yourself or your team at walkMS.org. If the weather is nice the walk will take place outdoors and music will be provided by Power 96's Mike Eiler. Mike is very excited about this great event and has been busy preparing!
