Description

If you’ve ever thought, “My family needs me, I don’t have time to rest,” you’re not alone. Most women with MS are carrying the double weight of managing their health and caring for others. But what happens when your body simply can’t keep up? This episode of My MS Podcast is all about finding ways to care for your family without sacrificing your health. 

Are you the one everyone leans on—the mom, the daughter, the wife, the caregiver—and you’re trying to do it all living with MS? You’re still carrying all the weight, but suddenly your own body needs care too. In today’s episode, we’re talking about what happens when caregivers get MS, and how to keep your battery charged so you don’t burn out.”

In this episode of My MS Podcast, I’m not giving you clichés or generic advice that never factors in what it’s truly like to live with ms… I’m talking about the real-life pressure of being a caregiver with MS, and how to protect your health in ways that actually work when life doesn’t let up.
