Transcript

NICHOLE: What makes me me? I would have to say my energy and my disposition, my ferocity and determination, my unwillingness to quit.

Super: RELAPSING MS WON’T TELL ME WHO TO BE. MEET GISELI…AND NICHOLE

Super: NICHOLE C., VUMERITY AMBASSADOR

GISELI: Family is everything to me. Family is the reason I have the mojo to keep on going.

Super: GISELI C., VUMERITY AMBASSADOR

NICHOLE: Something I'm extremely passionate about is listening to my body. Because if I don't listen to my body, I can't do all the other things that make me happy and who I am.

Super: LISTENING TO MY BODY

GISELI: I am passionate about the MS community and how I can make a difference in someone's life. MS is not the same for everybody, and this is what make us so different and so special.

Super: THE MS COMMUNITY

NICHOLE: Relapsing MS has changed my perspective on how I live my life in that I've become empowered. I took all the bad and the good things that relapsing MS gave me. And now, I don't sweat the small stuff so much anymore.

Super: EMPOWERED

GISELI: The way that the relapsing MS changed the way I live my life is, um, everything I do now with, with more responsibility. I try to make sure that I take better care of myself today.

 

NICHOLE: When myself and my doctor decided on VUMERITY for my relapsing MS treatment, one thing came to mind: hope. Just hope that VUMERITY could be a good fit for me.

Super: HOPE

GISELI: Taking VUMERITY makes me feel that I chose myself first.

Super: I CHOSE MYSELF

NICHOLE: When I think of taking my VUMERITY, I think of flexibility. Because it's a pill, I can take it to work with me, when I travel, just anywhere.

Super: FLEXIBILITY

GISELI: It fits in my lifestyle perfectly. I just need to make sure that I have my bottle with me and just keep on going.

Legal Disclaimer: Individual experiences with VUMERITY may vary.

NICHOLE: It is a welcome change.

 

GISELI: I think VUMERITY chose me as much as I chose VUMERITY. We are a perfect combination. I won't let relapsing MS break my spirit.
