Diagnosed with MS on her 10th wedding anniversary, Pam Grimes has spent the last three decades not just living with the disease—but showing up anyway. From raising three young kids while adapting to life in a wheelchair, to turning her entire neighborhood into a grassroots fundraising walk, Pam’s story is one of quiet resilience, fierce love, and unwavering purpose.
She doesn’t call herself a hero. But after listening to this conversation, you just might.
Pam also creates hand-embossed greeting cards—thoughtfully designed, dry embossed by hand, and bundled to raise funds for the National MS Society.
📬 Text Pam at 812-236-6233 to order 5 cards for a $25 donation. Every dollar supports MS research and services through the National MS Society.
She’s also hosting her own version of Walk MS on April 12th in her Indiana neighborhood—an inspiring local effort that brings friends, family, and neighbors together for a cause that’s deeply personal.
Want to support Pam’s MS fundraising? Text her directly to learn how you can donate or participate in this powerful community event.
