Donna Poellet – Saginaw, MI

I have had MS since 1980 – before the MS drugs were available. I wasn’t diagnosed until 1993 when modifying drugs were available. My MS is very stable now and I’m able to do lots of activities including exercising and painting.

I never considered myself an artist until I got the instruction from a great artist who guided me along the way. I now paint in both water color and acrylic – enjoying both. Painting gives me an outlet and activity that my MS doesn’t affect. Painting is very relaxing and enjoyable with friends.
