I heard it through the grapevine that I've been missed. I've been busy with my kiddos this summer. My daughter just turned 1 last week and my son is about to start 1st grade! I started having new symptoms about a month ago and my doc sent me for a mri and he told me my MS is worse. I have 2 large active lesions.... he put me on a 5 day steroid drip. It was kinda fun. Kinda like social hour. I got to meet other people with MS in my area. I met a guy Brandi went to school with. I was also taken off the once a week shot I take and put on a 3xs a week shot. It is a smaller needle so I actually like it better:) I feel better so far I guess... better than I did. I'll try and show my face around her a little more. Youngins got me on the run though;)

Mandi, It's sooo great to see you! I'm sorry you're having to undergo more intensive treatment for the MS, but you have such a positive outlook, and I really admire that.


Have fun with the kids! Once they get into grade school, the years really do pass right before your eyes!


Hugs,

Welcome back Mandi! I was thinking about you the other day and was hoping you'd pop in with an update. I'm sorry to hear that the MS is getting worse, but glad that you got a chance to meet others as well. That's always a positive experience. I remember sweetfeets going to first grade, I cried all day his first day LOL.


Thanks for the update, and definitely drop in more often! You are missed around here.

I'm glad to see you, Mandi... been keeping my eye out for you here, wondering how you've been doing. Sorry to hear the MS is worse, but it sounds like they're keeping a good eye on you now!


Summer and kids definitely equal a very busy time. Do enjoy the little ones and say hi to Brandi for us. We're thinking of you all ~~~
