I am taking part in the Cairns MS Swimathon 2012 in order to raise much-needed funds for Queensladers living with multiple sclerosis (MS). MS is the most common disease of the central nervous system and affects more than 21,000 Australians.

Did you know?

• Today five more Australians will be told they have multiple sclerosis
  
  
• The average age of diagnosis of MS is just 30 years
  
  
• MS affects three times as many women as men

MS Australia – QLD aims to minimize the impact of multiple sclerosis on all individuals affect by the disease, as well as their families, carers and the community by offering a wide range of services, equipment and support. MS Australia – QLD’s goal is to assist everyone affected by MS to live life to their fullest potential and secure the care and support they need, until we ultimately find a cure.

Please DONATE by clicking on the button to the right and help the MS Society support all people affected by multiple sclerosis.
