    In this episode of the MS Show Bron once again talks to Maddy Baxter. Maddy was only diagnosed with MS relatively recently and talks candidly about her diagnosis journey, her reactions to it and how she is now contemplating a post-diagnosis future for herself and her husband.  The topics discussed are around coming to terms with the illness, what that might mean for her working life and how she is learning to put her own health and wellness first without feeling guilty. Bron and Maddy also consider what it feels like to live with the uncertainty brought by MS and the need to focus on planning for what is really important going forward and the concept of breaking down things into smaller more manageable steps. Maddy and Bron also discuss the benefit of maintaining a sense of humour to help you through the difficult times.  Please share this episode with others who may find it useful.   Get in Touch with the show: Email the show: hello@multiplesuccess.co.uk Find Bron on social media using these handles:    Bron Webster    Multiple Success There's a website too: https://www.multiplesuccess.co.uk and a friendly and helpful Facebook group for people impacted by Multiple Sclerosis.
