@YyJoBb Oh gosh, I don't know for sure, but I don't think so. I would ask your doctor. Good luck!

[swissdude101]

@laurenvparrott Fantastic! Great to hear that with motivation, and inspiration, you can still live a loving, fulfilling life, and not let your illness run your life.

[laurenvparrott]

@swissdude101 Thank you so much!

[swissdude101]

So how has it been? This video is 3 years old, how are you?

Hope the best :)

[laurenvparrott]

now im really scared,i have had ms for 8 years and never walked like that. What scares me is the thought what if i start walking like that,?I cant even afford the medicne, i would loose my job, my career, my every thing!

Lord have mercy on us All. Aameen

[laurenvparrott]

@sherokpazoor Hi Aameen - I walked like that for a total of around 5 months. That was 3 years ago and I'm totally fine now! I wish you the best with everything!!

Isn't it interesting the things we used to take for granted like WALKING??? There's not much I do anymore, and I think that probably drives home the point we discussed about our MS being a blessing in disguise because I know that I see the world in a completely different light now and have a hard time even killing a spider when I find one inside during the winter and will try to capture them and let them loose outside...;) Everything deserves a chance to live I think even spiders and snakes.

[laurenvparrott]

@aeolos58 I know! Absolutely! I definitely see the world in a different light now, and I think what you said about the spider really hits home. You're right - everything deserves a chance to live!

[laurenvparrott]

Hi Rachel! Thank you so much for writing to me! I wish you and your partner the very best!!

[omarshawky84]

hi lauren, i could c 4rm the video that ur balance is shifted to the left. mine is shifted to the right, so i ususally need a hand while walking but there is a little tip, when u hold some1 try to lean your hand or palm on the shoulder i think this gives you more control and grip especially at the ladders part its so confusing. just thought this would help.

[laurenvparrott]

Thank you for the tip!

[michaela1980]

you remind me my self,i need an arm to hold!!!!ms is not stronger than us!!!

[laurenvparrott]

That's right!

Doreen! You are so sweet! Thank you for your comment :)

[OSA503]

How far you came from last year, huh?

I am so glad that I have had the privilege of knowing you. It helps to remind all of us what we have in life. I would love to share my experience with you about my hospitalization. It changes you, somehow.

[laurenvparrott]

Hi Jolie! I know, can you believe it? I would love for you to share your experiences with me! It definitely changes you...without a doubt. I hope you are feeling well!

Lauren: This is Karen Graskewicz (Todd's mom), and I was speaking with Amy today and asked about you and how you're doing. I wanted to send you an article I found about a diet for MS. I'd like to send you the article if you want. You can get my phone number from Amy (I don't want to post it on a website).

Keep fighting the fight, Girlfriend!

[laurenvparrott]

Hi Karen! Wow, thank you so much for thinking of me! I will call Amy and get your phone number. I hope you had a great Christmas!

this brings back so many memories of myself a year ago in the hospital when i was diagnosed with cancer! it was so noisy there. i was so happy to go home for some peace and quiet after 2 weeks of constantly being woken up!
