A final resource to share with you today comes by way of the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada which has developed three separate websites specifically for kids, teens, and parents.  Check them out - MS for Kids, MS for Teens, and MS for Parents.

 

Lots of great information is available, however..... keep in mind that there is no rush and children are excellent at pacing their desire to know the answers to life’s questions.  Listen with open ears and your children will let you know what they need.

 

How old were your children when you were diagnosed?  Did you tell them right away, wait until they were older, or did you keep it a secret? 

 

Please share your story which may help someone else looking for the same answers.
