TTP Episode 6 Multiple Sclerosis with Patti Bevilacqua

  • Riassunto

  • Welcome to Taking the Pee Episode 6 conversations about life, health and overcoming the challenges we face on our individual journeys. This time I speak to Patti Bevilacqua about multiple sclerosis. In September 1989, Patti started her dream job; teaching high school physical education. However, five months later, before the end of her first year of teaching, she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. Ten years later, she left the only job she ever wanted due to worsening symptoms of MS. In 2001, Patti went back to university to pursue graduate studies at the University of Toronto. Her ultimate professional goal was to teach and supervise others keen to enter the same profession. In 2005, she graduated with a Ph.D. in Teacher Development. Her research focused on the impact of chronic illness on teacher identity. However, she never secured a tenured position as a teacher educator and went on long-term disability in 2007. Fourteen years later, she discovered her life with MS was far richer when she focused on living each day as her best self. We chat about the impact of chronic illness on our lives and the changes required to shift our focus away from the struggles of dealing with a life changing condition to the wonder of being in the moment and just enjoying life in all its fulness.
