Reconnect with Allison to celebrate superpowers at eight-years post-HSCT (Ep. 92)

HSCT Warriors

Warrior: Allison Carr AI: Multiple Sclerosis HSCT: December, 2014 Superpowers: hope and grit Are you motivated to give back to others? To what extent do you recognize superpowers in others? How challenging is it for you to be optimistic? As someone who spent nearly twenty years battling the unknown, Allison was surprised to be approached by a stranger curious about her drop foot, and even more surprised when she was finally diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. After battling with insurance to pursue HSCT outside a clinical trial in hopes to avoid the transition to secondary-progressive, and dedicating time to healing her physical body post-transplant, Allison continues to find gratitude and spread hope to others along her journey. Reconnect with Allison (who we first met in Season 3) to learn from her personal, physical and spiritual reflections, and how she is faring at nearly eight-years post-transplant.
