77 Artists – 77 High quality work pieces…

77 photographers, -both amateurs and professional-, have been more than generous in lending me their work in an effort to raise funds to put an end to Multiple Sclerosis.

It’s a Beautiful World is the product of my concern for my community and for humanity. It combines my interest in tourism and geography with my new found passion for the MS cause.

This project would not have been possible were it not for the generosity of the many photographers who agreed to contribute their work.

ALL proceeds from the sale of this book will go to www.mssociety.ca

Thank you for your support.

“I was diagnosed with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis at the age of 22.

In 2006, a severe multiple sclerosis attack left me clinically blind, unable to walk, sit or stand on my own, with sensorial distortion, muscle weakness, pronounced speech problems and a mild case of ataxia which made me unable to write, get dressed or feed myself without assistance.”

“Although I have made an almost full recovery this experience changed my life forever.

I believe that within all its tragedy, Multiple Sclerosis doesn’t have to be a hardship alone. It can also be a tool; a reason to be a better person.

I am one of the lucky ones, for I know better than to take my life for granted.”
