Surviving MS: Matias Delgado's story

So imagine, you're just living your life, mid 20's, and then you start to feel like something is wrong. You eventually go to the doctor, and he confirms, you have multiple sclerosis, a debilitating disease that affects your motor abilities among many other things. Most people with this disease end up in wheelchairs without control of their body. But not my friend Matias. This is his story, what he went through and is still going through. It's nothing short of an incredible story of determination and part miracle, its one of my favourite stories ever, which is why I convinced him to let me share it with you all!!
