Life-changing events bring out a superpower that each of us needs to survive. Many look to their faith, families, friends, and each of them—in their own way—provide a strength that bonds into a shield of protection that allows surviving the unthinkable. "I Have MS. What's Your Superpower?" is an amazing story shows how absolutely tough those afflicted with Multiple Sclerosis have to be.
Multiple Sclerosis is an insidious disease that affects 200,000 to 3 million people per year around the world. Author and advocate, Lisa McCombs, will share her personal experience with "no holds barred" to help others and their families cope with MS at a special Lunch With Books for Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Month, Thursday, March 22, 2018 at noon.
Lisa McCombs retired after 33 years of teaching high school and middle school language arts. While a difficult decision, she has found solace in being an advocate for raising awareness for multiple sclerosis, with which she was diagnosed in 2001. Lisa travels the tri-state area sharing her experience with MS. When not researching her disease, the author is busy writing, adding to her four published YA novels.
