How does this keep happening? It’s the same mistake year after year. I have cancelled my membership countless times to no avail. Despite all my efforts I still received THIS in the mail… Looks as though I’ll have multiple sclerosis yet another year. At least through 2023 according to the card. But …
I feel burned out. Burned out in terms of multiple sclerosis, that is. And I don’t mean being dog-tired of the bummer symptoms. We’re all in that way! I’m referring to the notion that maybe my MS has run its nasty course. The deed is done. The worst is over so to speak. The …
There is nothing better than a good back scratch. Dig in with the right touch and I’ll sit there like a dozy Labrador (tongue hangs out just the same). But with me it doesn’t stop there. My back. Neck. Scalp. Hands. Shins. Chest. Armpits. Head, shoulders, knees & toes. Knees & toes. With …
When you have had multiple sclerosis a while the usual MS talking points get somewhat boring. Humdrum. Same-ol, same-ol. They need jazzed-up a bit to keep my (and maybe your) interest. Welcome to “Tired Wired,” where we take an old “tired” MS topic and give it a new “wired” spin. Here we go… …

Speaking to those with multiple sclerosis, you already know that with a MS diagnosis there can be a truckload of symptoms, signs, reactions, maladies & ailments…affecting …
I just finished taking a cycle of the commonly-prescribed oral steroid, Prednisone. Whether you have MS, a myriad of other health conditions or simply trying to boost your home run total, you are well aware of what I am about to say. How do these tiny, tiny pills…smaller than mini …
Stockinged feet have long been my preferred way to pad around the house. They’re quick to put on, carefree & comfortable. Clad only in socks, my feet would move from room to room with dancer’s grace. No matter the surface. From the plushness of carpet…to smooth hardwood…to cool tile, my feet were happy everywhere …
I apologize. A lot. Sometimes I blame my quick expression of regret on my lack of self-confidence. I probably screwed something up, so it is just easier to apologize, accept the blame & move on…..till the next goof-up (‘cuz there will be more!). But other times I blame multiple sclerosis for my short …
Are you curious as to why I am celebrating? It’s because September marks my 25th MS anniversary! Hol-ee crap. A quarter century. I haven’t been this happy since I stepped on a nail.
