According to the World Health Organization, multiple sclerosis is a condition in which the immune system attacks the brain and spinal cord. Symptoms include “vision problems, tiredness, trouble walking and keeping balance, and numbness or weakness in the arms and legs.” While there is no cure for the condition, treatment can reduce symptoms and prevent future relapses." - Billboard.com
