"When the Road
Turns"
Inspirational Stories
about People with MS
by Margot Russell
hosted by Joe Spataro
 This book is the first of its kind to share the
real-life struggles and triumphs of those facing MS in one inspiring collection. Margot
Russell has worked as a news broadcaster, a reporter and a television producer, and was
diagnosed with MS in 1998. In this interview with Margot, we look at how her book is
different, telling the stories of real
people; different
types of MS; hormonal
therapy for MS; the differences
between men and women with MS; how to get in touch with your dreams,
your talents and your ambitions; and more about Margot and her family.
If you or someone in your family has MS, this is a great place to begin your journey and
to share your story with our support group.Multiple

Possible beneficial
effects of estriol
on the progression of the disease
by Sue Spataro, RN, BSN
 Dr. Rhonda Voskuhl, a neurologist and researcher at UCLA Medical
School, has finished her study looking at women with MS (Multiple Sclerosis) and the
effects that estriol may have on their disease process. In spring 2001, the study was
completed confirming that for relapsing remitting MS, estriol showed an improvement in
symptoms. Also, the brain scans (MRI) for women taking estriol improved. We also have case
histories from people on our support groups that support these findings. If you have a
loved one with MS or you have it yourself, join our support group on the Women's Health
Center and ask your question.
