National Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Month || Celebrity Jack Osbourne on living with MS, plus other familiar faces fighting MS

Three famous faces of multiple sclerosis: L to R: Montel Williams, Ann Romney, Jack Osbourne
People living with multiple sclerosis are lucky to have so many celebrity spokespeople out there helping to drive home the need for research and a cure. Some famous people have parents or siblings or spouses with MS, while others are living with it today and have been doing so for a very long time.

Here's a nice video interview with Jack Osbourne, son of Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne, who was diagnosed in his mid 20s and is working diligently to get the word out about multiple sclerosis: how it affects people's lives and what needs to be done about it. Osbourne also has a great awareness promoting website to check out: You Don't Know Jack About MS.

Here are two other slideshows highlighting personalities who are deeply impacted by multiple sclerosis. Tell me you aren't surprised by who makes the list.
