This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Community: Knowledge & Support

We've hit a thousand registered members today-- just about 11 months after we "opened our doors"! Thank you for your amazing participation!

This is the message we put up for the front page of the site; I'll repost it here....


To our dear visitors and members of the community: We are incredibly happy to announce that today we have reached a very important milestone: the 1000 member mark! In less than one year, This is MS has become one of the top five MS sites on the internet, and a haven for the scientifically-minded person affected by MS.

With the incredible support we've seen from our community, we are all the more excited about making This is MS your premier resource for Multiple Sclerosis research, news, and community. In the coming weeks, watch for the addition of many exciting new features-- most of them suggested by some of our ONE THOUSAND PLUS members

With Multiple Sclerosis, knowledge is power, and with the incredible amount of research going on today, (demonstrated both in our news stories and our discussion boards) knowledge equals hope. Our mission is to help each member of our community be the best-informed, and thus the most hopeful, they can be. If you are new, please join us-- you're among friends. If you are already a member, please accept our gratitude for your participation.

Congratulations to all for being part of a web site that puts power and hope back into the hands of the patient.
