Hello Jim' Thanks so much for all you are doing in raising awareness of MS. I have raced vintage road race for many years, until I was recently diagnosed with primary progressive MS. I was having symptoms for a few years prior to the diagnosis, but for the most part just worked around them. I had to think long and hard about quitting racing, but in the end, it was necessary. No job, no insurance, etc. I hope you are able to continue with your racing. I have learned to be thankful (most days) for whatever I am able to do. I can still walk a bit, and my eyesight isn't too bad, just blurry. I spend lots of time visualizing racing which is bitter sweet. I also have been building a bike, which is great therapy and keeps my mind engaged. Again, thank you for the inspiration! Mike
