Many thanks to Trishna Bharadia for the very informative interview and for showing us that it is worthwhile working for yourself, but also for a larger group of patients. I wish Trishna continued energy and of course all the best for her own journey with MS. It’s really great what she has already achieved and how she is contributing to a more inclusive society.
See you soon and try to make the best out of your life,
