Marlo Rocks!


Every time I read something written by Marlo Donato, I am reminded that she is indeed one of my MS heroes. She should have a cape, preferably one designed by Donna Karan.

She recently posted five reasons, one a day, Monday through Friday, on why companies should hire folks with multiple sclerosis. Her list is great! They range from cost effectiveness and time efficiency to delegating and sharing knowledge.

Cheers to some great articles! I, for one, appreciate the message of empowerment conveyed in each of these five posts. Thanks Marlo!

To read the articles, check out her blog here: http://marlodonato.tumblr.com/

Ciao for now.

Staying in work with MS - Marlo Donato Parmelee



I just love Marlo! This is a great video she made on working with MS. As many MSers know, it can be challenging to "come out" at work. I have not told my employers that I was diagnosed with MS (unless, of course, someone at my office is reading this very post right now then the cat's out of the bag). Yet, if I watch this video over and over, I suspect I will find the courage to talk about my MS more freely at work. Marlo is super strong!  I am always so impressed with her strength and dubbed her one of my heros after reading her book "Awkward Bitch", in which she talks a lot about her experience with staying in work with MS. What a super hero!


Best,
Christie
