@Fight2CureMS I like to thing of music with meaning as coming from God. there is no way I could put MS in words. Thanks for the compliment though. The song can get you through some tough times. I am actually a fan of it.
Thank you for writing this song. I was diagnosed almost 2 years ago, and I was just now introduced to a support group on facebook. It's good to know that I am not alone when I am feeling down about my MS because I know there are people out there who care like you. I appreciate this song and you for dedicating it to us. This song reminds me that I have MS but I will never let it have me! :-)
Thank you so much for this. I was diagnosed at 11 and have been living with it for 5 years now. It's looking to the future that's the scariest part of this disease for me.
I have really wanted to get a tattoo of inspirational words that can keep me going, if anyone has any ideas, let me know :)
Thank-you so beautiful ive been diagnosted having MS for the pass 5 year and this song is just beautiful ......and what i find hard its my humor changing due to all the pain ......and my family and friends not understanding what im gong through
THANK YOU.. I was Diagnosed 3 years ago, I feel so alone sometimes because all of my friends don't know what i am going through! This song hit me hard man. Please keep it up. I honestly feel like better listening to someone who also goes through this also! THANK YOU!!!!

@shenzycacy You are most certainly welcome. Everything is gonna be alright. Hold on because it is a bumpy road. Go ahead and grieve for what you may lose in a possible future. FOR A TIME and then LIVEURLIFE Ultimately in my journey I have found that God keeps his promises. I send you love and strength to get through this time. CLing to hope and scratch and claw to never succumb to fear. Check out my video: Multiple Sclerosis: The greatest crippler of young adults? Blessings, Mark
@shenzycacy :) My 21st birthday I've celebrated in hospital, diagnosed with MS (not the best birthday present :)).
I have MS for 1,5 ears. Trust me, a huge part of MS is "the choice". If you choose to loose your life, you'll loose it, but if you choose to live a full life - YOU WILL!!!
The only thing I can say is:"Don't try... Do it! And you succeed!" I've checked ;)
P.S. I found true love with the help of MS. I cannot have any treatment, so I don't waste my time. ;)
@AlexLopatenco this is all so true... if you choose to live with ms your life becomes so wonderful... I have had ms since I was 17 - now I am 23 - and I can safely say that i have found love IN ms. When you have ms you have to learn to accept yourself, without ms there aren't many excuses to do so ;)
@shenzycacy I have been living with ms since i was 16 im about to turn 19 now...dont worry it will only get better even when it gets hard, it always get better!
AWESOME SONG!!!!! so great that you have a talent to let people connect to the feeling and show them what its like in some way..thats what songwriting is all about !!!!! GREAT JOB!;-)......keep in touch .... Sonja McLeary
This was amazing. My grandma has MS and I was trying to find songs to put on a CD for something I'm doing in 2011. I loved this song it was so comforting. Thank you for posting it for everyone to see. May I have a copy of it?
Very touching. Ihave MS, my younger sister has it and as if that's not enough a year in a half ago opur 20 year old daughter was diagnosed.. So you canm imagine the discussion we have about CCSVI.
So happy things have worked out well for you.
On top of this - I have been on Tysabri for almost 2 years and my neurologist thinks I should go off because of pml!!!! My head is spinning - always feel better when I check in with you and see how well you're doing.
Thank you. That is the best thing in the world to hear as a songwriter. "I related to you song so well" or "this song hit home". You said both in one little comment.
Know what you mean about the fear! Good song and nice guitar. Have watched your other posts on CCSVI. Just written to my neurologist today, fingers crossed he will refer me for a scan though haven't heard of it happening here in UK YET. Couldnt believe my ears when you mentioned the analogy with plane crashes as I had just written down the VERY same thing about a minute beforehand! Spooky! All the very best to you. xx
I am hoping that you can get the procedure. I have some friends in the UK like Omario (omexmc80) who are working at getting CCSVI awareness out there across the pond.
Times can seem very hard. Especially when you are 12. I know that you are sad now, but the days get a lot easier;. Be a kid. Enjoy life. The best thing for your parents is to be there for them. Your dad is probably SO PROUD to have such a thoughtful and kind daughter. This will make his MS much less of a problem. My daughters keep me strong. Keep your head up and be there for your parents. You can reduce stress in your dad's life with kisses on the cheek. It is a medical fact. hugs
@irishbear76 yes but that is really hard to do now =( Because my mom and sister + dog we live in sweden and my dad moved back to home town =( And im so deppressd and going crazy because i want to live in america and the M.S makes me even more deppressed sometimes i actually wish i would die =( I know it sounds bad but its true ='(
Have you told your mom that is how you feel? I am VERY experienced with being depressed. It did not get better until I went to a therapist and poured my heart out to him. He helped me fall in love with life again. Talk to your folks and let them know how you feel.
awesome! luv it! Heh, i always find a song on utube to listen to while i do my injections - so.. thx for helping me through another one of these damn shots with ur music :)
Love the song Mark, all of us MS'ers can relate, plenty of depression involved with this disease, with all the losses, can only remind you, what you already know, Jesus Christ said there would be hard times, but also that He will be with you the whole way through,,,,God Bless you
I WOULD TOO. My bandmate is being a little lazy as of late. LOL
Nah, I got a lot on my plate with the NACCSVIS idea and music will have to wait; howeve, i could sell professionally recorded versions as a fundraiser possibly.
Amazing mark, i love listening to this song.. i know it of by heart already :P but i wont steal it if i get famous :) I will ask you to join me in a collaboration.. :P
That was absolutely beautiful. This song has been bumped up to my number 1 favorite song. :)
Thank you for taking the time to do this, and you have an amazing voice. Maybe one day you can make this song available so we could download it for ipods and cellphones. :D
Very good Mark, I like it alot.. u should do a recording of it in a studio and upload it.. love the lyrics.. I love to sing too Ive applied for britians got talent 2010 and going to be singing.. working on my vocals hard.. again amazing song, love the lyrics, music and a great tempo..
Oh my goodness!! I was reading an old blog I wrote about my mama one day and was like "Hmm I wonder if there are any songs about M.S.?" I never ever thought I would find your amazing song! Thought I'd find some generic song! My mom has had M.S. for almost 10 years & in the last 2 yrs she's went from walking to not really being able to get into her powerchair. I see her struggle everday. And I will say your song brought a tear! So very talented! Keep it up! Once again God Bless U & Ur family!!
Thank U for taking the time to make this video. I also have this ugly illness MS. I did my shot of Copaxone while watching your video. I asked U to be my friend and also subbed to U so I wouldn't lose U.
I do not have MS, but nonetheless I was drawn to you're video.
You have a nice voice and I think the song is very well done. I'm sorry that you have to live with that condition... life really throws us curve balls, to say the least.
Brother, that is seriously beautiful! Thanks so much for this. I needed that. It is great to know you. You have been favorited! Love and blessings to you and your family. Robinson.
Well done for a highly felt song I felt it and favoiurited it ; I love singing and you have a beautiful voice way I say I have MS too and singing keeps me happy Keep singing for you and people around you ! it is a joy ot hear you !
Hi Mark, am still learning this U tube stuff, I was wondering if you know much of in home steriod treatment? am having 5 days of it starting on the 20th is there anything I should ask the nurse about? what to expect? don't know if you have the answers but would like any advice I can get.
this is the most touching and incredible song that I have ever heard! I don't think I can find the right words to tell you what I felt inside of me when I heard the song you wrote. I am speechless because there are no words that can explain what someone feels listening to what your heart, your mind and your soul created while you have to live with Multiple Sclerosis.
I put your song in my favorite videos group because I want to be able to listen to it over and over and because I felt that it deserved to be there with another of the videos that you made some time ago.
I hope you are feeling well and that you are having a nice day,
I was probably a couple of years older than you when I felt my first symptoms
(19) but I did not get diagnosed with MS until I was 28.
You have gotten MS at the right time as far as disease modifying drugs. They are addressing your MS at a young age and I think that bodes well for your future.
The key with the newer meds is starting them early and early diagnosis.
Mark, I want to thank you for sending me your song :) I hope you don't mind but I have made it "my song" I Love your video's so very much, and they make me feel welcome, and mostly understood . God Bless you and your Family :)
Great job. I use music as an outlet for my MS as well. Beautiful song. Thank you!

I was also diagnosed in 2003.
It was unclear at first if it was PPMS or RRMS.
I was very scared. I had a young daughter (I now have 2 young daughters 9 and 2).
We cannot control whether or not we have MS.
WE can control if we are going to let it ruin us or we can allow the test of our character to edify us and make us better people.
Make no mistake, we have more control than we think.
Pull close to God and watch HIm work.

"Angela i am not a stupid person. I know where this disease is going and it scares the hell out of me. You are in denial if you believe otherwise"
She said "You aren't stupid but smart people know they sometimes have to delude themselves so they can carry on."
This song was born from that conversation, my desire to try, and my decision to hope instead of fear

I hope you are both well.
I have an 8 year old daughter named Madilynne and I cannot even think of how hard it must be on you two.
Your daughter sounds like a special little girl. Something good will come from this.
You are both in my prayers.
God bless.
Love,

Thank you for your kind words.
I am actually going to record this song in the studio at some point, but time has been hard to come by.
My buddy that I record music with has somehow got this on his ipod. (We use YouTube for quick demos)
Take care.

You are welcome.
I started playing the guitar one day. I had a lot of thoughts swirling around about my MS, my life, my journey and this song came out
I think this song resonates with everyone who has MS; therefore, it is my gift to US.
irishbear76 2 years ago
Oh my goodness!! I was reading an old blog I wrote about my mama one day and was like "Hmm I wonder if there are any songs about M.S.?" I never ever thought I would find your amazing song! Thought I'd find some generic song! My mom has had M.S. for almost 10 years & in the last 2 yrs she's went from walking to not really being able to get into her powerchair. I see her struggle everday. And I will say your song brought a tear! So very talented! Keep it up! Once again God Bless U & Ur family!!

I appreciate the nice things you said about the song.
I am sorry to hear that your mother is struggling.

I wish you and your mother all of God's blessings.

Thank U for taking the time to make this video. I also have this ugly illness MS. I did my shot of Copaxone while watching your video. I asked U to be my friend and also subbed to U so I wouldn't lose U.
Take Care of U.

I do not have MS, but nonetheless I was drawn to you're video.
You have a nice voice and I think the song is very well done. I'm sorry that you have to live with that condition... life really throws us curve balls, to say the least.
Take care man, all the best.. stay well.

Dear Mark,
this is the most touching and incredible song that I have ever heard! I don't think I can find the right words to tell you what I felt inside of me when I heard the song you wrote. I am speechless because there are no words that can explain what someone feels listening to what your heart, your mind and your soul created while you have to live with Multiple Sclerosis.
I am deeply touched, my dear friend.
Thank you for sharing this with all of us.
Please, take care,
hugs

I put your song in my favorite videos group because I want to be able to listen to it over and over and because I felt that it deserved to be there with another of the videos that you made some time ago.
I hope you are feeling well and that you are having a nice day,

Thank you for the nice comment..
I was probably a couple of years older than you when I felt my first symptoms
(19) but I did not get diagnosed with MS until I was 28.
You have gotten MS at the right time as far as disease modifying drugs. They are addressing your MS at a young age and I think that bodes well for your future.
The key with the newer meds is starting them early and early diagnosis.
Always stay positive. LAUGH ALOT.
BE A KID. SLOW DOWN. AVOID STRESS.
attitude of gratitude

Mark, I want to thank you for sending me your song :) I hope you don't mind but I have made it "my song" I Love your video's so very much, and they make me feel welcome, and mostly understood . God Bless you and your Family :)
