I am fighting a nasty cold but nevertheless will try my best to post wacky facts about MS every day this week.
Other exciting events happening this week:

If you have an orange MS bracelet, wear it all week long, so if people ask what it's for you can tell them about MS, about your fabulous friend Caroline and invite them join/donate to WalkMS 2009! If you don't have one, let me know and I will make sure you get one!
Fact #1: Multiple sclerosis is believed to be an autoimmune diease, though this has yet to be 100% proven by science. Like most autoimmune diseases, MS affects twice as many women as it does men! We women get all the fun... :-)
