0:02.0	And I'm Jamie Lynn Sigler.
0:04.0	And this is messy.
0:07.0	The following message is brought to you by Novartis.
0:17.0	Since partnering with Novartis, I have been thinking a lot about when I was diagnosed with relapsing MS.

2:03.1	Allie's going to share with us today what that moment was like to receive the diagnosis,
