Descent into MS - Episode 3 - Make Do and Mend

In this episode of Descent into MS, strap yourself in for a raw, funny, and moving look at the realities of adapting to life with MS. From imagined MI5 lift lobbies to beach holidays gone sideways, we explore what it really means to make do and mend when the rules of daily life are rewritten by chronic illness.

Host Grahame shares stories of humour, humility, and hope, whether it’s navigating counselling services, mastering fatigue management, or finding connection with strangers in unexpected places. There’s poetry, punk spirit, and a few rogue James Bond fantasies. But above all, this episode is a heartfelt reminder that being broken doesn't mean being useless, and that with support, adaptation, and a bit of dark humour, we can rebuild.

Listen, laugh, and hopefully learn something new about living with MS.

Because we are Spartacus. We may be broken, but we shall make do. And mend.
