A few weeks after I started blogging for the site MSweb.nl, I started receiving comments and emails from different kind of people who have been reading my blogs and said that they finally understood the life of people who live with a MS patient. The blogs where understandable, happy, sometimes sad but mostly honest. Honest about our life with MS. Yes, our life. My wife has MS. And last year (summer of 2015) she got a heavy schub. She couldn’t move the right side of her body and at that moment I realized I had to write about our experiences.

My blogs started getting populair and more people asked for some sort of advice. Two months ago I registered the domain platform.ms and a few days later I started thinking about how I can reach people with stories about people who live with MS. I asked some friends around me (tiepiesnicole.nl, @BeertjeBrult) if they were interested in writing for Platform MS. They were thrilled! YEAH! We wanna write our stories.

And so the first week of www.platform.ms is a fact. Now its time for new authors, contributors, bloggers or other people who have a story to share. A story about Multiple Sclerosis. A story which can help other people identify themselves. A story to help people!

I hope to see you all soon!

Thanks!
