This happens every year at @Glastonbury, so it's probably a good idea to find a better festival instead of trying for tickets.

MS is an incurable, progressively disabling, and incurable disease.

🌿 Emphasizing wellness & healthy living becomes even more crucial with findings like these! Adopting a heart-healthy lifestyle can potentially influence our brain health, especially in the context of secondary progressive MS. Let's be proactive in minimizing vascular risk factors and supporting our brain health. 🧠💚
