Hi, as someone with MS, I have participated in fundraising. At one of the fundraisers, I attended a luncheon and was able to meet Teri Garr. She was a very pleasant person and her humor in her speech was definite. It may be really hard to get a response from her. I know she does several speaking engagements every year and she is still making movies. Although she has a more progressed m.s., she still can get around pretty good, sometimes with the help of others. I am not sure what stage of M.S. she is in, but I do know she told me she uses rebif if that knowledge helps anyone. It is very hard for her to write as I witnessed the day I met her, in fact, she was writing something to someone, not an autograph. Just wanted you all to know she is a wonderful, friendly person. She tries to not let her disease get her down. I too, have M.S. and have remitting relapsing. Before I met her, I was constantly worried about what the M.S. was going to do to me. Not anymore. If you get a chance to meet her at one of her luncheons, I highly recommend it. Her stop was here in Virginia. I suggest contacting the M.S. Society and maybe they can let you know where she is going to be this and next year. Good luck.
