About the song
For over three decades, Alan Osmond, one of the original members of the famous Osmond Brothers, has lived with the devastating diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS). Despite the physical challenges and unpredictable nature of the disease, Alan has remained an inspiring symbol of courage, faith, and resilience.
Diagnosed in the late 1980s, Alan’s life changed dramatically. MS, a chronic condition that affects the central nervous system, brought with it fatigue, mobility issues, and moments of pain that could have easily broken his spirit. But instead of retreating from public life, Alan chose to face the illness head-on—not just for himself, but to inspire others going through similar hardships.
Over the years, he’s shared his journey openly, using his platform to raise awareness about MS and advocate for research and support. His powerful message: “I may have MS, but MS doesn’t have me,” continues to resonate with fans and patients alike. With the support of his devoted wife, Suzanne, and his large family, Alan has not only endured but has lived with purpose and grace.
Even in his quieter years away from the spotlight, Alan’s legacy lives on—not only as a performer, but as a man who refused to be defined by his illness. He represents the spirit of determination, and his story is a reminder that while disease can affect the body, it cannot conquer the will of a strong heart.
In a world where many suffer in silence, Alan Osmond’s bravery is both humbling and uplifting. His ongoing battle with MS is not just a fight against illness—it’s a triumph of spirit.
