We’re tackling advanced MS in this podcast episode of ‘Breaking it down’.

Disclaimer: we discuss some sensitive topics in our interviews, including difficult MS symptoms and death.

We hear from Advanced MS Champion, Michelle Black, about how she supports people living with MS and what she sees, day in, day out.

Plus, Mark Webb talks us through his life with advanced MS, from indoor skydiving to daily challenges. We also catch up with Jen, who cared for her husband Dave until he sadly passed away. She takes us through their routine, community and those special moments together.
