Hodgepodge post with a side of weigh-in.

Hodgepodge post with a side of weigh-in.

Hi everyone. First I want to thank everyone who reads this. Yesterday I wrote a tough blog post. Actually I wrote the blog Monday night and posted it on Tuesday. I did feel much better yesterday body wise but by the end of the day my body was shot. I woke up this morning made sure my daughter was awake and went back to bed. A first for me. I was definitely sad when I first got up today. Just…

MS is a tough disease

MS is a tough disease

I don’t like to rant. I try to keep my blog in a positive state of mind but sometimes I just am exhausted. I don’t need to do much anymore without suffering the consequences.  People who haven’t seen me since the day I left my job would be amazed I would think. I have and continue to get worse. Sometimes my hands get so tired I can’t pick up my fork to eat dinner. My legs not only get tired…

God grant me the serenity

God grant me the serenity

I don’t think there are many people that don’t know the serenity prayer. It hold true to so many beliefs because it holds true to so many things. God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change. People included. There are so many things in the world just completely outside our control especially other people. I can never control the actions of another no matter how much I want to.  With my child I can hope that…

Disability and the roads of friendships

Disability and the roads of friendships

I think it’s happened to most people with disabilities at some point or another that we loose touch with friends as our physical limitations exclude us from activities. Mine happened in two parts. I am one of “those” people that disappear when I’m in a relationship. I know looking back I hurt people because I sided a loyalty with this “loved one” that many of my friends felt wasn’t a good person for me. The problem was I fell in…

A casual stroll along the boardwalk

A casual stroll along the boardwalk

I did something yesterday I haven’t done in at least 15 years.  I went down to Long Beach and went down the boardwalk. I met a friend who lives right on the ocean front in one of the many beautiful buildings down in Long Beach. She met me on her scooter. Took me to park my car. Put together my scooter and away we went. We went down to from her building to the west ends end of the boardwalk….

Thankful in the present moment

Thankful in the present moment

Yesterday was a tough day.  I went future tripping on the complete unknown of MS.  I’m got very worked up and scared of the possible needs of my future when my daughter goes to college.  From that point I went into a complete state of panic, sadness and the feeling of being overwhelmed.  I cried throughout most of the day to just about anyone I spoke to.  It was a mentally and physically debilitating day. i woke up today put…

Overwhelmed

Overwhelmed

This will be one of those rant posts.  I started my day or early early morning waking up from a dream.  One of those dreams where the other person that was in the dream was just mean, hurtful and painful. I woke up and literally looked up and said really.  What am I supposed to learn from that one.  Well it too a while but I did shake off the dream and got up, worked out.  So far normal routine….

Is this another MS symptom or just age?

Is this another MS symptom or just age?

I’m going to my neurologist today  that the specialist just the regular neurologist. The same one I’ve gone to for 18 years. The same one that diagnosed me. The one I’m most comfortable with. Lately I’ve been noticing I’m having problems remembering words and peoples names  even though I might have just talked about it.   I find that things aren’t leaving my head quick or the words are there but just can’t reach them. It’s a little scary. I…
