Crys was diagnosed with MS at the age of 11. She talks about her experiences as a first-generation Latina and her mission on social media. You can find all questions and answers on my blog: https://ms-perspektive.com/073-crys

Today I’m talking to Crys about her life with multiple sclerosis as a first generation Latina. Crys was diagnosed at age eleven and experienced her most severe episode at age 13 when she was paralyzed from the neck down. She recovered from this episode thanks to the devoted support of her family, especially her mother.

Nevertheless, to this day it remains a great challenge to have information about the disease, its symptoms and treatment options available in Spanish. To help children, adolescents and young adults in similar situations feel better than she did, Crys explains her life and the daily challenges of living with a chronic illness with a zest for life.
