MS Books

Hello Friends,

I hope you find this MS reading list helpful. As I discover good reads, I will post the titles to this page. The ones I have read have been super helpful during my journey and in gaining a better understanding of what it means to live with MS. And, in case you want to buy one of these, I included a link to Amazon (P.S. no worries, I do not get any $'s from Amazon if you do decide to buy something, I am just featuring the titles because I think that are really, really useful and you might want speedy and easy access to shopping!). 


Any good reads out there that should be added to this reading list? Let me know!
