My Progress
I'm walking 150 kms this month to leave MS behind
My Progress
5 KMS
My target
150 KMS
Support me and contribute to quality of life for people affected by MS!
I am participating in The May 50K. I will move/walk 150km in May to raise awareness and funds for life-altering MS research.
What’s the connection?
While you may not immediately see it looking at me, I was diagnosed with MS in 2025. The past year was a serious rollercoaster but after thorough confrontation about what this means for myself going forward, I am determined that this year will continue in better spirits, with this challenge being part of it!
MS is a chronic autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks the protective layer around the nerves in the brain and spine. It‘s also called the disease of 1000 faces as no two cases are the same - some may have more mobility restriction in the long term, others struggle with cognitive capacities and fatigue. Luckily research came a long way the past 20 years and a lot of us get to live a fairly enabled life through high-efficient medication. MS is as off now not curable but very much manageable.
36.000 in the Netherlands, 300.000 in Germany, 2.9 million people worldwide live with MS and we need your support to fight this chronic autoimmune disease.
Beyond the fund raising, this challenge is just as much about raising awareness to me. A lot of people affected by MS or other autoimmune disease are invisibly ill and still experience an array of stigma.
Supporting this fundraiser also means creating sensitivity and encouragement for people living with invisible illnesses. Thanks to the coorperation of International MS Federation, Stichting MS Research, and Deutsche MS Gesellschaft we’re moving closer to a life with less MS related restrictions.
Would you like to sponsor me? Any contribution helps!
Thanks a lot :)
