Hi everyone, happy hump day. I’ve been wanting to do this comparison of workouts for so long. I did my typical workout. https://youtu.be/qbFvZEPTXDk. This is from Adapt to Perform. He has so many great workouts on his channel. Each workout is for wheelchair users being he is also confined to a wheelchair. The one I posted above is my go to workout routine 2-3 times a week. I repeat this three times when I do it for a total of…
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…
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…
I’m so excited to be able to share this with everyone. I am doing a live session about Bionic Gym. I am doing this with the founder and creator of Bionic Gym, Dr. Louis Crowe. I have been very lucky to have had the opportunity to personally talk to Dr Crowe on a few occasions. He responded to me after I made a video for Bionic Gym customer support. I have loved Bionic Gym from the day I received it,…
It’s my birthday tomorrow. 51!!! I’m middle age. I think my body has been middle age since I was 43. That was when multiple sclerosis hit me with the last relapse that started my path of true disability. It’s been 8 years since that last relapse. It was when I was switching from Tysabri to Rituxan. I made the mistake of stopping Tysabri because I actually had the thought of switching to an experimental drug. I needed to be off…
I am half way through my Rituxan infusion. Chilling out watching Ink Master. I was smart this morning. I kept my arms covered despite being slightly warm. I know, all too well, that my cold arms do not help when trying to start an IV. I overheat so easily so there is usually a fan blowing right next to me. I might not feel cold but my arms and hands are always cold to touch. I kept a sweatshirt on…
Every year I put this on my blog. Every year he does this amazing fundraising event in my name. This is a MS fundraiser that I wouldn’t be able to participate in based on the level of my disability. I haven’t been able to ride a bike in many years. That is what is amazing about these fundraisers, most of the time the people participating don’t have MS. I thank everyone who donates. However, I truly thank the people out…
I’m sneezing. My first cold of the year. I have been taking my oregano oil for a few days. It has probably helped but it hasn’t stopped the cold like it has in the past. I think things are just not affecting me the same since my whole pneumonia debacle. Oregano oil use to knock out anything as soon as I felt the twinge. Now I feel like it doesn’t do the trick. I’m not use to actually feeling run…
I’m waiting out a F1 rain delay so I decided to write. Rain always makes a race so much more interesting. My favorite driver, Fernando Alonso, a veteran and oldest F1 racer loves the rain. He knows how to drive a F1 car in those weather conditions. He isn’t scared taking the corners at a high speed as some of the newer drivers still are tentative. Plus this is a night race in a street circuit. That means close walls….
This article was from multiplesclerosis.net. I haven’t posted much on research lately. Probably because I am at a point where most drugs in the horizon won’t help. However, today Facebook has been showing ads for multiple sclerosis drugs that ARE NOT drugs approved for MS or covered by insurance. They are just ads from companies trying to target a market for the chronic disease. I don’t mind the ads when it’s nail gels or low carb keto snacks. By all…
