i'm closely approaching the half-life mark with the MonSter, but what can you do, you know? lucky me went from RR to SP over the years, but even though i
can't walk well or as far as i used to, i *can* still walk so it's all good. (i do miss wearing high heels though! LOL) i think the attitude and the
plethora of drugs (the legal ones) keep things sort of stable!
and support groups are good, because i think we all have different experiences and can learn from and lean on each other. hmm...i wonder if there's some
way to start a "group" on yuku, as it looks like there's a good handful of us. besides, some of the stuff we go through, do others in OT *really*
want to hear about it?
Reply from igber: Oh, I still mourn my high heels! I was a pretty snazzy dancer too (disco-don't mock) and I had lovely handwriting and played the piano. Still can sometimes
(not often), we never know do we? Thankfully, I too, can still walk. Not in a straight line or down hill or without falling into clothing racks though. I get a
kick out of it though. What better way for the big gal upstairs to tell you, "always expect the unexpected!".
I don't know if there is a strictly M.S. board around. We'll have to go spelunking. I'm wiped out right now (been organizing and cleaning). I tell
those who worry about me, 'I don't know how long I'll feel this way, so I'm doing it while I can!'.
I'll try to do some investigating tonight! The weather here dips below 60 at night so that's when I'm in my element.
I'm off to sleep but I'll be around later. Good to have you as a buddy!
