URGENT! Your help is needed. This concerns each one of us touched by MS. Funding for MS research is at jeopardy. The current annual NIH budget may drop by $1 million both in the year 2007 and 2008. The NIH (National institutes of Health) is a leading researcher in MS, which WILL only slow down our advancements in research to bring us better treatments and one day (hopefully sooner than later) a cure. WE CAN NOT allow this to happen. There are things we can do. Please visit The Montel Williams MS Foundation. I urge you to take the time to read up on this information and ACT FAST! There is not time to wait.
