Why Rachel Sindaco Says She’s Lucky to Have MS | The Eye Believe Podcast

In this inspiring episode of the Eye Believe Podcast, we welcome author and advocate Rachel Sindaco, whose journey through Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Ocular Melanoma (OM) reshaped her life in unimaginable ways—and ultimately saved it.

Rachel maintains a remarkable positive outlook, openly sharing how she considers herself lucky to have MS. It was her MS diagnosis that led to increased medical monitoring, allowing her ocular melanoma to be caught early—a discovery that may have saved her life. Without MS, Rachel believes her cancer might have gone undetected until it was too late.

Her book, From a Kick in the Head to a Kick in the Ass: My Involuntary Journey with Multiple Sclerosis and Ocular Melanoma, is a candid, often humorous, and deeply moving memoir about navigating serious illness, reframing adversity, and finding gratitude in the most unexpected places.

This conversation is a powerful reminder that perspective matters, early detection saves lives, and even the hardest diagnoses can carry unexpected gifts.
