    A good support team is essential to coping with life's many demands. For the parent with multiple sclerosis (MS), other parents may assist with occasional childcare and transportation. An occupational therapist can offer advice on energy management and lifestyle adaptations, while a career counselor can assess job suitability and help make the most of working hours. Support groups supply an understanding that only others with MS can deliver.
