I guess my point was that after having MS over 16 years that this is one theory I had never heard of. I've heard a lot too. I was just posting what the young man told me, didn't intend to cause a fight with anyone. My vet. doesn't have distemper either.
Nobody knows what causes it and I have articles dating back to the early 90's when I was diagnosed with all kinds of theories. Same thing today. They have no clue.

It is a huge coincidence and shame that a husband and wife both have MS but I wouldn't take too much stock in the theory of how they contacted it.
