This August, I’m taking on my TBR shelf and reading for a cause that’s close to my heart.

In August 2023, I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, joining thousands of Australians currently living with MS and other neurological conditions. The funds raised through the MS Readathon help provide vital support services that make it possible for people like me to navigate life with this diagnosis.

Over the past two years, I’ve experienced firsthand how overwhelming life with chronic illness and disability can be mentally, physically, financially, and socially. Without the support of these services, I wouldn’t be able to finish my degree, build my career, maintain my relationships, or pursue my personal goals.

These services include nationwide helplines, MS nursing, psychology, employment support, peer groups, physiotherapy, speech therapy, NDIS plan management, and much more. Additionally through fundraising MS Australia is able to support critical work in research towards the prevention, treatment and cure for MS. 

Thank you so much for donating to support my MS Readathon adventure. Every contribution makes a real difference.
