Generous Donation to Help MS Research

It was a great surprise to see the form recently created on our server arrive completed in the webmaster's in-box!
It arrived later in the routine of the day, after lunch and snooze. This second seating in front of the monitor may not happen before 6PM. It all depends on the level of distractions.
But that day, it was early in the afternoon. Luckily, someone else was in the house with me, I was overcome with joy and needed a hot drink and a shoulder rub. It is not surprising after 29 years of MS, Multiple Sclerosis is exaggerating my emotions. I like to keep a quiet life.
I planned the form but I was very surprised by what the form user had said: a Bristol couple related to a PwMS was getting married and had decided to ask their friends and relatives to give to MS Research instead of flowers and presents. And to top that, they offered to help organize events and with collections. What a modern way of volunteering, a trend setting way I hope. Congratulations to the happy generous couple!
