My mom was a heavy smoker, four of us were under weight at birth and the fifth baby died at fourteen days, diagnosis, under weight. I am the only one with MS. Island girl

My mother did not smoke - I have MS

I smoked for about ten years (college and later) - two grown daughters - I keep my fingers crossed everyday that they do not get the MS dx

might be part of the scenario, Chris. It's going to be case by case.

Jeff's mom didn't smoke or drink ever...his parents were/are very healthy, but he has a younger sister who's had some health issues- I'd love for Dake to scan her jugulars.

My Mom smoked, and I've had migraine issues, but no MS.
