Walk MS NYC – Southern NY took place over two weekends in April at five additional sites – West- chester, Putnam, Rockland and Orange Counties and Staten Island – raising awareness and funds for local programs and services to help more than 12,000 people living with MS in our community live their best lives and support the Society’s critical research to drive progress and help transform the pace of MS research progress – accelerating breakthroughs that will change lives and end MS forever. David, who is living with MS, inspired walkers during the opening ceremony by sharing his journey with the disease, which included temporary paralysis. David is the son of Alan Osmond of the iconic Osmond Brothers music group. Alan too is living with MS. David was the recipient of the National MS Society’s prestigious Spirit of Life Award as well as the Ambassador of the Year Award in 2012. In partnership with Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation, he launched Our Voice in Song™, an educational campaign that aims to empower people with relapsing MS to take charge of their disease. He performed his inspirational song, inspired by his grandfather’s words, “I Can Do This.” On the Cover: Chapter President Robin Einbinder and singer, songwriter, musician David Osmond at Walk MS NYC. *This issue has been brought to you by a generous grant from 4 MS CONNECTION: SUMMER 2016 CHAPTER NEWS “The diagnosis was a relief but MS is difficult and so varied in everyone, so you just have to look at it as it is, and deal with it,” she says. “You MS WARRIOR FROM just have to accept what you can and cannot do.” Janis eventually developed spasticity in her right ACROSS THE POND leg and some lesions on the brain, which affected her memory and concentration that resulted in her being permanently restricted from driving.

However, he found his event of choice in Walk MS Staten Island saying he “loves doing the Walk because it has a great sense of community and since no special equipment or training is needed anyone can participate.” In the 10 years he has co-led his team, The FunRaisers, they have grown from four members to at times as many as 24, and have cumulatively raised more than $40,000 to drive groundbreaking research, provide life-changing programs and guarantee a supportive community for people living with MS. “Volunteering allows me to give back to the community which makes me feel productive,” says Derek, who is retired now. “Moreover, I’m very impressed by the work ethic of the hard working staff at the chapter.” To learn more about volunteer opportunities, email [email protected]. *This issue has been brought to you by a generous grant from 6 MS CONNECTION: SUMMER 2016 ADVOCACY (Congressmans Tonko and Maloney) signed on to our funding request for the National In- stitutes of Health.

  • Live in Concert 2006 (DVD) Page 1 of 2
    The Daily Vault Album Reviews : Live In Concert 2006 (DVD) Page 1 of 2 Live In Concert 2006 (DVD) The Osmonds MVD Entertainment Group, 2006 REVIEW BY: Michael R. Smith ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED: 11/22/2006 The Osmonds are one in a million. This new DVD is a testament to their enduring legacy in the fickle and often unfair world of music. “Only in Britain can something like this happen” says Alan Osmond upon joining his four younger brothers for a rousing and unbelievable encore that included “He Ain’t Heavy (He’s My Brother)” and a new, positively blistering version of their classic “Crazy Horses.” The fact that Alan had to sit out the rest of the show (due to multiple sclerosis) certainly didn’t hinder the other brothers from putting on one hell of a show for their rapturous and adoring fans. Donny and Marie may not have been there, but their absence wasn’t felt in the slightest by this sold-out crowd. Live In Concert is a joy to hear, as old age certainly wasn’t going to prevent this talented group from taking the stage again, even if it may be for the last time. Their deep, resonant harmonies and exceptional musicianship in this performance shows that they still have what it takes, and they actually sound better than ever. Perhaps this is due to a lack of pressure for pop charts, but the brothers Osmond make it clear from the start that they choose to perform because they love the music and their devoted fans.
