Boy I sure wish I could read that last post of yours. Please, when you have so much to say, please break it up into small paragraphs. Some of us can't read big long readings like that. It gets all jumbled up, like it did for me. My story, from your initial post, I was dx at 20yrs with two small daughters at home.

A year later I was blessed with a beautiful baby boy. Yes, I had a child after an MS dx. I had relapses thru the years but nothing that kept me down. When the kids were grown and had moved out of the house, that's when I had 2 relapses really close together. I had been dx for 19 yrs by the time MS took my legs.

You can never predict anything with this disease. Live your life to the fullest and do what you can while you can and put MS on the back burner until you can't anymore. That's what I did. Never let it take control of your mind, like, oh no I have MS my life is over. That's the worst thing you can do. You can fight it, we all are doing in our own ways. Don't let it take your hopes and dreams. Those are yours and nothing should have so much power to take that away from you!
