We DID IT!!

The interview aired — and while I wish they had shared more about the petition, the call to action, and the letters I’ve sent to the government, this is still a beginning. A spark. And I promise you… there will be more. This fight is nowhere near over.

Over the last few days, I’ve been overwhelmed with a mix of pride, fear, and determination. Your support has carried me through some of the hardest moments of this journey, and I need you to know how deeply I feel every message, every signature, every share.

For the MS Warriors who have seen & reached out - I’m in complete disbelief that it’s even come this far in such a short time - YOU are all apart of this fight - YOU ALL matter! 

When I received my infusion medication for what might be the last time,it hit me in a way I wasn’t prepared for. There’s a unique kind of fear that comes with MS — not just the fear of symptoms, but the fear of losing pieces of your life you can never get back.

For me, that fear is my vision.

I want to see my children grow into who they’re meant to be. I want to see their milestones, their victories, their ordinary little moments. Those are the things MS threatens to take from me… and from so many others.

MS is complex. It doesn’t look the same for any two people — RRMS, PPMS, SPMS — each pathway is unpredictable. Many of us require strong, high-efficacy medications right from the start, not years down the line when the damage is already done.

Yet here in B.C., we are forced into a system that denies us the very treatments that experts across the country use as standard first-line care. We aren’t given a fair chance to protect our futures. We are expected to decline first, suffer first, prove enough damage before we’re allowed the medications that could have prevented it.

How is that fair?
How is that humane?

Our doctors know what we need. We know what our bodies are going through. But the system keeps placing barriers between us and the care that could keep us working, parenting, living — simply existing without fear of losing more than we already have.

What terrifies me most is the possibility of missing the memories that shape a lifetime:

My daughter accomplishments ,My son at home plate ready to swing,  
Their dreams unfolding right in front of them.

These aren’t luxuries — they’re my life.They’re why I’m fighting.

All we are asking for is equal access. The same options that every other province has. The same hope. The same chance.

To everyone who has stood with me — thank you doesn’t feel big enough.

But please keep going.

This isn’t just my story.
It’s the story of every person in B.C. living with Multiple Sclerosis who deserves the chance to protect the life they love.

We’re not done.
Not even close. 
And together, we will create change. 🧡💪
