I remember it clearly. It was my 14th birthday. I had been having strange symptoms - mostly numb areas on my legs and areas that tingled for no reason. On that day I started to have major pain on the right side of my face. I told my mother, a registered nurse, and she brushed it off as nothing of importance. I remember thinking that some day I’d find out what was wrong with me, and I made a mental note that this symptom happened on my 14th birthday. Yada, yada, yada – I was diagnosed with MS at age 59.
