I need to buy life insurance as I have a young child and don’t want to leave her with nothing from mommy if something happens to me (car sccident, etc.). I know MS isn’t going to kill me. I don’t work anymore (SSDI) so I no longer have a policy through an employer.

Try PrimeAmerica. They have policies which don't require a medical physical at reasonable rates.

I have a life insurance policy with State Farm but only for 100K. Tried to get 200K but they told me that I could only get it for 100K. Figured it was better than nothing.

When i was diagnosed he said he was waiting to get the results verified by another nero doc. He said it would be a couple of weeks to confirm it. I believe he was giving me time to shop life insurace, as i had told him prior that it was something me and my wife were currently looking into getting. We have 3 adopted children since they were babies and we wanted to have insurance, our wills done. I got 150.000 policy, and while it may not be alot, ive got 100,000 from my fathers passing, so the house would be paid off. I dont want to lesve my wonderful wife and children with a burden of my passing. Their college is all ready covered by The state of Florida, which is a god send. (Covered by adopting choldren)

I don't have Life Insurance but I don't have children so I don't feel I need it. My younger brother will get my house and anything else I leave. Good luck!
