John King, a CNN correspondent, discusses his experience growing up Irish-American in Boston and navigating life while living with multiple sclerosis (MS). Diagnosed in 2008, he spoke about the effects of heat on his condition, which limits his outdoor activities. King describes MS as a cruel disease, affecting many individuals drastically in a short time. Despite the challenges, he is still able to engage in activities he loves, reflecting resilience in the face of a debilitating condition.
Multiple sclerosis sucks. The heat is the worst for me. We have had a very hot summer in Washington, so I can't go outside as much as I'd like.
MS is a very cruel disease to many people who get it. They go from walking to wheelchairs in a matter of months.
