you're going to have to stop your life.

And I think that's what stops people from sharing.

And I think if you can tell people what your exact MS looks like to you, because it's very individualized.

And this is why I talk about me and my twin sister quite a lot, because it's like, we are identical twins and ours is different.

If you can share what your story is like, that will stop people from just putting you into the box that they think MS is.

Because a lot of the information that's out there is very outdated.

There's so much research happening behind the scenes

that doesn't get to the doctors until about five to 10 years later.

So what they might tell you is very different to what you might see on the internet of this social media page of this guy who's living in Cornwall, who's, you know, lifting every single day or maybe, you know, doing something else.

And I think that's the power of like something like MS that is so individualized.

If we can see as many different stories as we can, that's what can help us.

someone who might get diagnosed tomorrow might go, oh, actually, okay, I'll be okay.

And what was great about the Olympics was we get such a platform with the Olympics.

And I remember when we were like doing our kit collection, there was this part where we had to just say a little bit about ourselves so that if like, let's say, for example, there's an Olympic app.

So Paris 2024 had an Olympic app and you're racing, they can click on your name and there's a little profile about you.

Mine said, literally, she has MS.

That was my profile.

I was like, that's great.

And I didn't know how to change it.

So as I was competing at the Olympics, it was very much, if you clicked on my name, it says she has MS.
