Living with MS can be hard enough. But helping a child understand MS and not feel lonely or afraid is a whole different challenge. To support you, MS LifeLines® has created this short animated video to watch together. In it, Zach explains his mom’s multiple sclerosis diagnosis to his friend Sophie and tells her that he doesn’t see her MS the way some other people do. Where they may see disability, he sees only his mom’s love and strength. Sharing his story for the first time and talking about his feelings helps both Zach and Sophie feel better.
