'You only live once, and you only get certain opportunities one time,' Jackson Minter, whose MS diagnosis at 13 was rare for his age, told ABC13.
A recent graduate of Clear Lake High School, Jackson Minter is not letting his multiple sclerosis diagnosis stop his college career in track.With triple-digit heat index values appearing to turn the track into a toaster, Jackson Minter is not only willing to work out - he's excited to just keep going.
"I still wasn't totally grasping what it did and how dangerous it was," Jackson recalled. "Also, at first - I didn't understand how rare it was for a young African-American.""The typical patient with MS is someone who's older, and it's usually a female," noted "The first thing I say to my patients is: we can't cure it, but we can definitely manage it and definitely make it to where you live a pretty much close to normal life," Dr. Shukla pointed out.
