We’ve never met Sarah Kirwan and Carl Deriso as a married couple, let alone had a shared conversation with the two of them.
But less than two minutes into our chat with the Arizona couple, it was like we were catching up and laughing with longtime friends.
They had us at hello. And we, as A Couple Takes On MS, think they’ll have you there too.
Consider these facts about this Sarah and Carl:
• Sarah was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2011
• Carl was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 1996
• They met at an MS support group in May 2016 and started dating shortly after
• They got married in August 2020
Yes, they have similarities to what we’ve experienced with love, marriage and MS, but they have an empowering story all their own that we are so thrilled to share with you in this episode.
Join us as we tap into their dynamic relationship and what keeps them moving forward as a married couple living with MS. They provide their engaging insights into everything from who pursued who to kick off their relationship, where they turn for support, the importance of pets, what moments they treasure most, and how they keep going in spite of MS.
