The New MS Refugees Community
On Sept 25, A grass roots effort was begun to develop a new message board for soon to be former members of MS Watch. MS Watch was a popular site for people who have or deal with Multiple Sclerosis on a daily basis. Like most such sites a family had developed from many of its members who relied on it daily for information, support and sometimes just a place to vent. Teva Neuroscience (Copaxone) announced via Email on Sept 21 that the board would be shut down at the end of the month. The "Shared Solutions" website had become so important to so many that it's members provided their own "Shared Solution." On the evening of Sept 25th the new MSrefugees discussion forum went live and thanks to the efforts of many of its members, managed to boast over 300 members by the 3rd day. The response and huge amount of "Thank You" Emails we've received has been very uplifting during this time of transition. We have a new home now, please come by to visit!
