Fiction Writer Seeking Help

Hello,

My name is Amy and I am a writer. Currently I am working on an Young Adult contemporary novel where the mother of the main character is battling MS. I'm reaching out to see if someone would be willing to talk to me about symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment.

It's very important to me that I accurately portray this character, and it would mean a lot if I could talk to someone (preferably a woman and/or mother) about their battle with Multiple Sclerosis.

My questions would come in the form of a short questionnaire I could send to an email address. If you are open to talking to me about your experience with MS, I'd love to hear from you.


Thank you for your time.

Thank you. This link is VERY helpful, but I'm still looking to talk to someone one-on-one about symptoms, diagnosis and treatment.
