This year as well as raising sponsorship money he is organising a photo competition, in the hope of boosting his fundraising and at the same time having a bit of fun.

A frocking family affair…Megan Christoph (left) poses with spouse Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Sarah Christoph before being ceremoniously advanced to her next highest pay grade of mass communication petty officer third class when assigned to Naval Hospital Bremerton on Limited Duty status. Her work ethic at NHB garnered her recognition as 2019 Navy Writer of the Year followed by being chosen as 2019 DoD Thomas Jefferson Military Writer of the Year. Christoph has since been medically retired from active duty and was recently diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, thanks to timely Navy Medicine identification of the disease. MS is an autoimmune disease that impacts a person’s central nervous system such as the brain, optic nerves, spinal cord. It can’t be cured. But it can be treated, which is exactly what she is doing, with the help of Navy Medicine and civilian healthcare experts (Official Navy photo by Douglas H Stutz, NHB/NMRTC Bremerton public affairs officer).

A display team of people on scooters organised by a group of people with MS in Dartford. This was part of a rather good Fun Day that the group organised in 2002 with stalls, information and displays. The Red Wheelies performed a few times over the next year or two and also appeared on television.
Having drifted out of focus for a while, the Red Wheelies have been revived and are now based in Kent, doing displays and undertaking treks to raise money for MS. They have a website at www.redwheelies.co.uk/
Today I've spent my day at a local MS Awareness Event run by MS Society Cymru/Wales at Swansea's Liberty Stadium. Didn't capture many photos for the very reason I was asked to sit on a Q&A Panel about the Challenges of Family Life for all affected by MS.
This is me spouting forth below, (not doing Karaoke) ;) captured with my camera by my OH.
The Klopfenstein family poses for a portrait in front of their photograph during the Express Scripts MS Bike Ride (MS 150) in Columbia in Boone County Missouri.

On April 18, 2010, it really happened. I walked the entire 3.2-mile WalkMS in a dress and high heels. To be honest, I wasn’t sure I could walk the whole way with the shoes, and seriously considered taking them off a couple of times. But I knew that at the end of the Walk, I can take the shoes off and the discomfort would eventually go away. My wife, and everyone else with multiple sclerosis, doesn’t have that luxury. So I just kept walking. One step at a time.
Thank you so much for everyone who sponsored me – your donation is helping to make the National MS Society an even better resource for people with multiple sclerosis. Thank you very much for everyone who walked with me on our team – I’m glad you didn’t mind going so slow. Thank you to everyone who has enthusiastically responded to this whole thing – every message I received really inspired and touched me. Thank you to Lan Yin “Eiko” Tsai for inspiring the look of my ensemble. And most of all, thank you to my wife for encouraging me and understanding the very serious ‘why’ behind this silliness.

I've just started on a clinical trial for Fingolimod vs. Avonex and this was my little place that I had to be in all day so they could observe me.

With purposeful focus…When Meagan Christoph was a U.S. Navy mass communication specialist assigned On Limited Duty status to Naval Hospital Bremerton, she provided a number of printed articles and accompanying photo coverage on Navy Medicine personnel, procedures and practices. She was medically retired from active duty and was recently diagnosed with multiple sclerosis – thanks to timely Navy Medicine identification of the disease – which is an autoimmune disease that impacts a person’s central nervous system such as the brain, optic nerves, spinal cord. It can’t be cured. But it can be treated, which is exactly what she is doing, with the help of Navy Medicine and civilian healthcare experts (Official Navy photo by Douglas H Stutz, NHB/NMRTC Bremerton public affairs officer).
