Corie's MS Journey

Growing up, I had an amazing childhood. Me being eight years old, it was the age of innocence. With not a single care in the world, I hung out with friends, I played softball, I sang in school talent shows and played in the school band. Reflecting on these experiences, now at the age of sixteen, I’ve come to learn and appreciate all of the things and people that made my adolescense so wonderful. In particular, i’ve come to really appreciate the one woman who attended every single event, screamed my name the loudest, and was overall proud to be able to call me her daughter. My mom made sure every event was a big event, even if it wasn’t. But my mom also made sure to act as if she was feeling fine, even if she wasn’t.


While I would often run from the play room into the living room and back again, I often heard the term “MS”. It wasn’t until I was older when I finally decided to question why my mom was continuously visiting doctors and constantly switching medications. Finally, after confronting my mother, I finally learned what “MS” was, and that my mother had been living with a disease called Multiple Sclerosis.


Baffled and confused, I yearned to discover was MS truly was. Multiple Sclerosis is an unpredictable, often disabling disease of the central nervous system that disrupts the flow of information within the brain, and between the brain and body. Looking at my mom, you would never know she had the disease, especially since the mask she wears, that strong big smile and stare of determination of course.  


Currently, in 2016, my mom’s mask is slowly starting to fade. After years of several doctors and dozens of medications, my mom’s weak immune system can no longer handle these unnatural posions. Using her last bit of hope, she finally has found a doctor and a treatment that may be a solution, but can not afford it. Therefore in order to get her the care she needs, I need your help.


My mom, Corie, is suffering from a buildup of spinal fluid in her brain. Since the medication by several doctors who “claim” to know what they are doing have been nothing but dissapointment after dissapointment, it is time for a more natural route. By undergoing 18 months of treatment, the following will be done:

-Discover physiological/nutritional imbalances

-Analyze urine and saliva to determine cellular pH and organ system stress

-Lifestyle and symptom analysis

-Assesment of food choices

-Nuerotransmitter imbalance testing

-Heart-rate variability testing

-Structural, postural, and musculoskeletal screening

-Nutrigenomic testing

-Iridolody/Sclerology examination

-Oxidative stress testing

-Blood miscropy to search for parasites, yeast, oxidative stress, and digestive imbalances

All of these tests and procedures will be done by specialized doctors who deal solely with autoimmune diseases and who use non-medicated approaches of correcting the spine and microbiome to bring the body back to a more original state of functionality in order to slow the progression of the disease.


Four children, each one of us growing up, and living life. I want my mom to be able to feel comfortable leaving the house, without having to experience burning, numbness, nueropathy, or blurry vision. I want her to not have to focus on simple motor skills such as writing, holding items, and daily manipulation of the fingers and hands. Most of all, I want my mom to be able to give my younger siblings the childhood she gave me, without having to hide the pain. My mom has raised thousands of dollars for the MS society through walks and fundraisers. I want to give back to her the way she does for everyone else, without ever asking for something in return. Therefore the least I can do is raise the money she needs to get the medical attention that can help her live a more comfortable and happy lifestyle. So I ask you, to donate, or to atleast spread the word. Thank you.
