I came across this video on YouTube. Although it’s produced on behalf of the MS Trust, it does give a very good explanation of ataxia in general. There’s good advice on coping strategy’s, and interesting tips on how to cope with tremors, and sensory problems 🙂 We can never have too much helpful information 😉  
So, on [YouTube.com](http://YouTube.com) search ‘Helping people with MS cope with ataxia. 🙂 xB

Would it be possible for you to check and repost the link you shared? It seems to direct to a Koodo commercial. Thx.

Got it to work! Thanks. 😀 I’m not sure why it initially didn’t work for me?  
A good video for sure. Lots of good explanations and ideas. 🙂  
Thank you for the info. 😃

No offence taken 🙂 MS can run hand in hand with ataxia, and not many people know this. I’ve sometimes wondered when I post, if any reference to ‘another condition,and helpful information’ puts people off reading it 🤔 That was the only reason for my comment 🙂 xB
