Superpower: divine positivity

How thick is the fog on your brain? How clearly are you able to think and plan? When gearing up for a significant medical procedure, how do you prepare for recovery?

After years of experiencing symptoms without answers until finally receiving a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis in 2016, Bonnie experienced heart complications with her first line of treatment that were exacerbated after abruptly stopping her medication. After finding HSCT as an option, she knew she would need to move quickly in hopes to halt her relapses.

Tune in to hear more about Bonnie’s journey to Clinica Ruiz for HSCT, and the affirmation that mental wellness is just as important – if not more important – than physical wellness. Join the team of supporters that helped her create connections with a community of support close to home, as well as internationally.
