Picture
Love Conquers All 
It was a Saturday evening, April 5, 2013, that Saronna Lee's life would change forever. That was the day she met her soulmate and life partner in the battle against MS.

That evening Saronna attended a party with a group of girlfriends and was on the dance floor when she caught the eye of Curtis Adams. Curtis, a reserved type of guy, was with his best bud, and was reluctant to approach her and interrupt her dance groove. He later mustered up the courage to introduce himself. Saronna greeted Curtis  and offered him a seat for them to talk further. The remainder of the evening was spent talking and making memories on the dance floor. At the end of the night, Saronna & Curtis exchanged information and parted ways.

A few days later Curtis called to ask Saronna on a date. She accepted. The next few months they dated. One spring day they took a walk along the river path and Saronna said, "the heat can sometimes make it difficult for me to continue walking, and that I sometimes have to sit down and rest." Immediately Curtis was curious and asked "why do you have such sensitivity to heat?" Saronna shared that she has multiple sclerosis and to her surprise Curtis responded saying "I have MS too."

With each passing day Curtis  and Saronna grew closer. They shared their MS experience and realized they had similar symptoms, took the same disease modifying therapy, and coincidentally went for treatment on the same day. They both even participated and fundraised for Walk MS: Georgia in Rome. Saronna and Curtis were astounded that they connected out of the vast number of people in the world, and knew it was divine intervention. Two years ago, they combined Walk MS teams and named their team   When 2 Joined Together.

On their anniversary, Curtis took Saronna to the Sky View ferris wheel in Atlanta where he dropped to one knee and proposed. They were married on June 6, 2015.
