## Resource

Topics covered : Multiple sclerosis, childfree by choice, travel, freedom, simple living.  This week, I sit down with author Susan Bennett to chat about her memoir, One Year. Susan and her husband Chris live in Antrim. After both receiving a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis just three days apart, they made a decision that would change the course of their lives.  Years later, they packed up their much loved campervan, fondly known as Hans, and set off on an unforgettable journey through 17 countries across Europe. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
