cooling vests work well.
so does a cooling collar. i got several a walmart for under $5 one summer.
i used them at work and they were great.

you could google, and also check with your local MS society for info.
but, i've heard that MSAA is a great source of help.

Joelle, thank you so much for such a generous offer, but I am a rather large person (6’ tall in my stocking feet) so I will require a large size vest.

Bets, I checked the website you mentioned, and you're right,a cooling vest that's actually cute! Does it work well?, is it wet when you put it on?

Thanks, Diana

It works really well. It is supposed to fit snug for full benefit. I ususlly wear a t-shirt under it and then a loose shirt over it if I'm going somewhere public -even though it is cute it is still a bit dorky to wear a quilted vest in 90 degree weather. No it isn't wet, it only absorbs a little moisture inside.

Did you see the ones with swarovski chrystals? Aren't they rediculous?
