Multiple Sclerosis

"You don't look sick!"

March is Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Month. So it seems appropriate now to tell you the story of how, the summer of 2004, everything in my life changed.

As some of you may know, I have been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis since about 2004.  It's a neurological disease that manifests itself in many different ways, and each person's symptoms are unique.

Usually here on our stations and on the web, I don't really stay too serious. It's not that I don't think serious issues aren't important, but I just don't like to take things too seriously. But on this post today, I'm gonna have to get real with you and tell you a little something about my life that you might not know about.

Jack Osbourne, son of Black Sabbath and solo career legend Ozzy Osbourne, has revealed that he has been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. The 26-year-old Osbourne, who only weeks ago became a father for the first time, has vowed to fight the disease: “‘Adapt and overcome’ is my new motto.”
