With the goal of offering those living with Multiple Sclerosis and their families, caregivers and partners, a place to share experiences and learn from others, Mercy Health is proud to host a monthly MS Support Group. The group is led by Mercy Health neurologist Dr. Anna Bite, the region’s only fellowship-trained physician in Multiple Sclerosis. The November topic is "Caregiver Focus".The group meets the first Tuesday of the month at 5:30 p.m. at Way Public Library in the Mercy Health Family Activity Center. “A MS diagnosis is life changing, but it isn’t a journey that must be traveled alone. This support group offers a place to learn, and we hope it will serve as another form of healing,” Dr. Bite said. “The group is a place where participants are welcome to share their unique stories in a supportive and uplifting environment.”Multiple sclerosis, also known as MS, is a neurological condition that affects the central nervous system (brain, spinal cord). Multiple sclerosis occurs when the body’s immune system attacks and damages myelin. Myelin is a protective sheath that surrounds the body’s nerve fibers. As the disease progresses, the nerves may also deteriorate.There are approximately 400,000 cases of MS in the United States. More women develop the condition than men and frequently are diagnosed between the ages of 20 and 40.Dr. Bite completed a fellowship in Multiple Sclerosis and Neuroimmunology at Ohio Health. She is a Partner in MS care through the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. She is passionate about providing care, education and support to patients and their families. Those attending the program are invited to discuss issues they confront daily as well as offer the opportunity to ask questions or share concerns. Additionally, the support program offers an environment where participants can learn valuable information and share experiences.

You’re invited to learn from journalist and author Joseph Lee as he chats online with us about his stirring memoir, Nothing More of This Land: Community, Power, and the Search for Indigenous Identity. In it, he explores Indigenous identity in proximity to land that serves as an iconic vacationing spot for the wealthy–the “island paradise” Martha’s Vineyard.Growing up Aquinnah Wampanoag, Joseph Lee grappled with what it means to be an Indigenous person in the world today, especially as tribal land, culture, and community face new threats. Starting with the story of his own tribe, which is from the iconic Martha’s Vineyard, Lee tackles key questions around Indigenous identity and the stubborn legacy of colonialism.Lee weaves his own story—and that of his family—with conversations with Indigenous leaders, artists, and scholars from around the world about everything from culture and language to climate change and the politics of belonging. As he unpacks the meaning of Indigenous identity, Lee grants us a new understanding of our nation and what a better community might look like.Register now to join the author online as he delves into the true and vulnerable story, Nothing More of This Land. About the Author: Joseph Lee is an Aquinnah Wampanoag writer based in New York City. He has an MFA from Columbia University and teaches creative writing at Mercy University. His writing has been published in The Guardian, BuzzFeed, Vox, High Country News, and more.
