KADEP provided me hope!
"It has been a little over a year since I came to KADEP; and what a year it's been.
When I came to KADEP, I did not want to be here. It was the last place
on earth I wanted to be. I had been diagnosed with MS about six months
before. I was angry, frustrated and scared. All I really wanted to do
was stay in my house and play the isolation game. But fate had other
plans.
So off to KADEP I came - I saw - I stayed. Why? Because over the past
year I have unfolded like a rose. I attribute that to may relationship
with the staff and participants. The love and support I experience at
KADEP is a constant healing in my life. I have grown immensely in this
past year.
Anger has changed to motivation -frustration into patience - and fear to courage.
I wish to thank the staff and participants for traveling with me on my
journey. KADEP is a source of great inspiration and hope for many.
Above all, KADEP is people... people giving and sharing; touching the
very core of my being with their love."

“I do believe my hopes will be realized, thanks to the wonderful care I
receive from the Rocky Mountain MS Center. It is comforting to know
that the Rocky Mountain MS Center is not only encouraging me, but so
many others living with MS to live life to the fullest."

“I have observed the KADEP staff at work for a number of years and am
most impressed with its expert training and knowledge. Equally
important, the people who work at KADEP have provided loving and
empathetic care of Martha and the other KADEP clients. Martha and I are
very fortunate to have been a part of KADEP."

“Since the early stages of my daughter Claire's disease, the Rocky
Mountain Multiple Sclerosis Center has been an integral part of her
care--medically, physically and emotionally. It gives us great peace of
mind to know that she can count on its dedicated staff to address her
needs or to recommend the appropriate alternative source.”
Jean Sanwick (mother of Claire)
"For me, the most important thing about hydrotherapy is that I am in a
totally safe environment. The volunteers, who are so good at what they
do, make sure you are safe while transferring in and out of the pool.
While in the water, no matter how bad your gait is, you are always safe
because if you fall, you are only falling into the water. So, it's a
very wonderful place to exercise! If I miss a class, I feel my energy
level go down. I also don't walk as well, and I really feel a
difference in my strength. There is a specific abdominal exercise that,
at first, I could only do five. Now, about one year later, I am able to
do thirty. I can really see the improvement with my body tone and my
ability to move and with my endurance. It's really, really helpful, and
it's a wonderful place to go, because the people are so kind and
caring, and they're really good at what they do!"
