Plans are in the works for the third annual McMinnville MS Walk on Oct. 12 at the McMinnville Civic Center pavilion and walking trail.“Walking for MS is a simple, but incredibly powerful way for you to share in the hope for the future,” said event coordinator Heather George. “It helps raise critical funds that support cutting-edge research, drives change through advocacy, facilitates professional education and provides programs and services to help people with MS move their lives forward.”Multiple sclerosis is a chronic, often disabling disease that attacks the central nervous system, which is made up of the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves. Symptoms may be mild, such as numbness in the limbs, or severe, such as paralysis or loss of vision.
