FOX News’s Janice Dean has been open about her lengthy, frequently hidden battle with multiple sclerosis.After receiving a diagnosis in 2005, Dean has managed the difficulties of the chronic illness while pursuing a career in public service for almost 20 years.

She recently gave a moving speech to other people who are afflicted with the illness, calling them her fellow fighters. Her remarks were full of support, solidarity, and encouragement for people who still fight multiple sclerosis on a daily basis.According to Janice Dean, multiple sclerosis is the “invisible illness,” which is frequently misinterpreted because people who have it may seem perfectly normal on the outside.
