My Friend May Have MS

Hello everyone. One of my best friends in the world recently had to go in for an MRI. She has been suffering severe headaches. Today, she gave me the news that she may have MS. She also deals with Cerebral Palsy. I am so concerned for her. I feel shocked and numb. She is a year younger than me. CP in itself is enough to deal with. She just recently had surgery on her leg because of that, and now this. I pray that it's not MS. She has been my friend since I was 10 years old, and they don't come any sweeter than her. Why do things like this have to happen? No one ever deserves things like this, but especially not her. She's had so much to deal with, it just does not seem fair. I know life never is, but why can't she catch a break?
If you guys would keep her in your thoughts and/or prayers, I would be extremely grateful. I'm extremely worried and sad and angry. I know that this problem doesn't directly affect my life, but in a lot of ways, she has been like a sister to me. For some reason, it seems to be hitting me hard. I don't think I'm handling it well, but at least I haven't fallen apart completely. I feel like I don't have a right to react as strongly as I'm reacting, but I can't help that.
