School MSA Survey

Hi Everyone, we have been very busy navigating the changes to my husbands MSA and also raising our children. Some days are more challenging than others, but I think everyone on this site can relate. It breaks my heart that he cannot go outside and toss the football or run at the park with the kids. Even so, we live our lives as normally as we can and enjoy the moments.

My dear sweet son wants to eventually go to med school so he can find a cure for his Dad, but I know it would be too late even if a miracle happened (this is where I cry every time). He understands the world and how it works but he is going to try. To that end, he is doing a school research project about MSA. He has asked if I would post a survey to you with 7 questions. Will you or a caregiver please answer the simple survey questions? Alternatively, you can also message me for the questions if the link does not work.

Cut and paste this link:

Thank you and bless you.

I told my son he might get 2 or 3 people to respond but he was blown away that so many people were kind enough to respond and complete the survey. Again, thank you.
