So what does MS look like? Why is it called the hidden disease? Well, probably because when you look at a person who has it, you may never know they are suffering. This is the case with Gail Lombardozzi, a life long family friend, that I had no idea was sick. To be clear, when describing her, I just say "family" or "aunt" . So for 17 years, I have been with her at parties and holidays and never had a clue. This is probably also because she is extremely independent and never asks for help or complains. I had the opportunity to interview her and her son Tommy for this project and was excited to get their honest answers about what it's like to live with this disease.  Watch the interview below but don't forget to click the READ MORE button after the video, to see pics of Gail as she shows the world what MS really looks like!!!!
