Colette Brooks Cunningham - Having a Partner Living with MS

Welcome back to Living with MS, the podcast from MS Ireland that shares the real stories, challenges, and triumphs of people across the MS community.Today, we are chatting with Colette Brooks Cunningham from Sligo, whose partner Liam lives with MS. We’ve spoken to many people living with MS, but this time we’re hearing from someone supporting a loved one — and that perspective is such an important part of our MS community.Collette shares her honest experiences, the challenges, and the moments of strength that come from walking this journey together. Colette also talks about her recent advocacy work with MS Ireland, helping to campaign for a community worker for the Sligo/Leitrim area, and how much she’s gained personally from getting involved.It’s an open, honest, and inspiring chat that reminds us how MS impacts not just one person, but families, relationships, and communities. The Living with MS Podcast series aims to give a voice to the Irish MS community as our guests share their own personal multiple sclerosis story from diagnosis to today.Every person with MS has different symptoms, different reactions to being diagnosed, different journeys and this series aims to share those stories every month to hopefully help you get a better understanding of MS. For more information on MS Ireland and multiple sclerosis go to our website here https://www.ms-society.ie We would ask you to follow or subscribe to this series wherever you get your podcasts and you will be the first to hear a new episode every month.
