Jason DeRoo: Supporting a Loved One with Multiple Sclerosis In this episode, we talk with Jason DeRoo, husband of Sarah DeRoo, who was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) and a previous guest on our podcast. Jason shares his experience as a caregiver and how he has had to adjust his expectations for his life with Sarah since her diagnosis. We discuss the impact of MS on their family life, the financial burden of the illness, and how they manage to balance caring for two children while also managing the demands of the illness. Jason also shares some of the challenges he has faced as a caregiver and how he has overcome them. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who is supporting a loved one with MS or any chronic illness. Donate to Sarah DeRoo's Bike MS Fundraiser

Now accepting donations via Ether at BikeMS.ETH Welcome to "The Other Side of MS" where our passion is to share the remarkable stories of individuals deeply affected by Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and to pedal together towards a world free from this condition. As a cyclist for Bike MS, I understand the power of the journey, and it's our collective 'why' that drives us. Our 'why' is clear and unshakeable: To make MS a thing of the past. Through heartfelt interviews and authentic conversations, we aim to shed light on the untold aspects of MS, the resilience of those living with it, and the impact it has on their lives, as well as those who support them. This podcast is not just about me; it's about you, the listeners, and the diverse voices that join us. Whether you're a seasoned cyclist, a family member, a passionate community member, or anyone who shares our dream of a world without MS, you're part of our community. Join us on this journey as we cycle towards a future where MS is a distant memory. This podcast is more than just stories; it's a movement. Together, let's amplify the 'why' that fuels us and work towards a world where MS is nothing but a part of history.
