Campbell, from Brandon, Man., is sharing her family’s story as part of A&W’s annual Burgers to Beat MS campaign.
“My mom’s just one of 90,000 Canadians living with MS, so it’s just a meaningful way for me to support a cause that’s obviously personal to me and personal to Canadians,” Campbell said.
MS affects the central nervous system and can cause a range of symptoms, from vision loss to tingling or numbness to cognitive and mood changes.

The veteran goalie then got back into coaching, running three goalie camps, and returned to her own skating and training.
