"Life can change so suddenly and you never know what lies ahead.From being a sports mad advertising executive my husband is now confined to a wheelchair by his progressive multiple sclerosis. However, thanks to Jewish Blind & Disabled we are both able to get on with our lives which may have changed but certainly have not stopped - as we make the most of every precious day."
