MS and Halloween

With Halloween approaching, the themes of the invisible, the unpredictable, and the body acting against the mind are everywhere. It’s funny how many classic spooky characters feel like metaphors for living with MS.

Does the Invisible Man/Woman capture the frustration of an unseen illness?

Does a slow, dragging Zombie perfectly embody MS fatigue?

Does Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde reflect the sudden, unpredictable changes in your body?

Does the Headless Horseman symbolize the constant battle with brain fog?
