  • I'm getting to the point with MS that my leg is so numb I might need to be in a wheelchair sometime. I'm freaking out about it. A wheelchair would never be my friend. Necessary evil at best.

  • How come you are worried about earthquakes? What bad could possibly happen with an earthquake? . Some new streets. A missing park Shopping mall not there any more. Worse things have happened ! Nice Kitchen and paintings. Cheers. from, del-boy.
  • Your Video is very helpful! Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!! MS stinks but its nice to have helpful things like this to get through this.

  • @franifran12 thanks for writing to me they just approved a new pill ampyra for gait so its coming the cure even if its just to help people to walk that would be great. awdesigns8@aol.com please lets talk love april

  • @AWDESIGNS8 I'm a new diagnosee as well. I was diagnosed on March 31, 4 months before my 20th birthday. I'm doing great so far!! The thing that has helped me the most is to take on the attitude of "Multiple Sclerosis doesn't define who I am just what I have." I don't let it get the best of me and i think that has helped me tremendously. I am sorry about the diagnosis, but don't be scared of it, if you don't want to lose the ability to walk then tell urself that. Good Luck :D

  • wow i just got ms and people like you give me hope 30 years great you still ca walk that is my worst fear

  • if you need a stick, use a stick. If you need a chair, use a chair. don't make it worse--they are neither good nor bad

  • Great video. Telling people to not resign to MS, but to stay strong and mobile. Seems like too many times depression gets the best of those with illness and they give up. You seem to be saying that you've lived with MS for 30 years and have the stick around only "in case" -- but force yourself not to use it. Inspiring.

  • Please get a test for Borrelia Burgdorferi from a Lyme Literate Physician and see the video documentary, Under Our Skin. There is hope! Most patients who have MS, Fibromyalgia, CFS, Scleroderma, ALS, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's actually have a chronic infection with Borrelia Burgdorferi and many other co-infections.

  • Good for you. Thanks for the advice.

    God bless you.
