A day in the life with multiple sclerosis.

Phantom Feelings

I always have a feeling that my legs are in a different position. I’m always in bed with my legs straight. I can’t move them on my own. The only way they would be in a different position is if someone put them there. Even then, chances are they wouldn’t stay that way. I mean the position with my knees up. Yet I always have the feeling that my legs are in this position, especially if I am under my…

Did you ever watch the cartoon The Jetson’s? You know meet George Jetson ?,his boy Elroy, his daughter Judy, Jane his wife ?. They were the futuristic family that drove the cars that flew in the sky. It was their phone that I was thinking about lately. They would get a call and it was always on this monitor. You would see the person that they were talking to. I remember thinking this was such a cool thing. Granted I…

Physical Therapy Begins Again

Hello my fellow bloggers and readers. Happy Friday. I am chilling with Zoey watching a F1 2008 race. I’ve been watching old season since the F1 season ended in 2022. I watched every race in the two seasons that Fernando Alonso won his championship titles. Fernando Alfonso is my favorite driver. I’ve seen many of his earlier races at various times. However, to watch a season,one race at a time, you really see how the title was won. I have…

Multiple Sclerosis Sucks

Multiple Sclerosis Sucks

Hello to all. How are you feeling? Don’t we always hate that question? Multiple Sclerosis is a shitty disease. Have I said that recently? I remember I used to ask my neurologist every time I had an appointment, are you sure I have MS?” He always replied, “it wouldn’t be an appointment with you without you asking that question.” Unfortunately, the answer was always the same. Eventually I did stop asking him that question. I don’t know if it was…

Multiple Sclerosis is not an Easy Disease

Multiple Sclerosis is not an Easy Disease

Happy Friday. I feel like this week went super fast. I didn’t do much. I fell again this week. This marks the fourth fall in 3 weeks. I am having trouble with transferring from my bed to my wheelchair or wheelchair to my bed. Most other the falls have happened with aides that were new to me. They either didn’t have good enough English to understand what I was saying or they really couldn’t do what I needed. However, the…

Star Wars Trilogy

Star Wars Trilogy

Once a year I need to watch the original Star Wars trilogy. I’m not saying that some of the new movies they’ve made over the years are bad, but nothing beats the original. Mark Hamill, aka Luke Skywalker, was my first boyfriend, although he was unaware of this fact. I must say that I still have a thing for his character in the originals as well as the newer movies. My favorite scene is still him looking at the evening…

A Monday morning Rant

A Monday morning Rant

I’m sad, my daughter went back home to Maine today. I had a really nice visit with her this past week. She might have needed to come home for mom time but I definitely needed daughter time. I am just such a proud mom watching her start her life. She is in a new state, has made some really good friends and has become so much stronger standing on her own. I can’t even begin to say how amazed I…

My daughter growing up beautifully

My daughter growing up beautifully

I’m happy to report that my vertigo has passed. I did speak to my neurologist who said that migraines can cause vertigo. I have had migraines for well over 15 years and never had that experience but whatever. My aunt also suffers from migraines. She had a spell of vertigo last year for the first time in her life. Her neurologist told her the same thing. I really didn’t think it was a new multiple sclerosis symptom. I really haven’t…

2022 Going Out with Vertigo

2022 Going Out with Vertigo

Happy New Year everyone. It is officially over. We made it through another holiday season. I started 2022 in the hospital with Covid and ended at home with a new symptom, Vertigo. I never had this before. It came out of nowhere. I was watching TV on December 30th and leaned my head to the side. Wow, I was spinning ?‍?. What the heck is going on now?? I can have low blood pressure, that was my first thought. Of…
