Default This just made me happy

I was listening to the news just now and heard the words "Multiple Sclerosis" mentioned. Naturally I whipped around to see what they were on about and glad I did.

Turns out this local woman is training for the Iron Man triathlon and planning a 7 day, 620 mile bicycle ride from sandeigo to san-francisco. She is now almost 50 years old and got diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis at 48 years old. She just developed foot drop and left side weakness, balance issues and runs, bikes with special braces and one handed brakes on her bike.

Here is something on Google I found about her.. http://cnytriathlon.org/member-profiles/jill-walsh/

This makes me very happy to see, very. She has MS, is almost 50 and is still running, biking, outside, everything.

This gives me great hope and I hope it gives you some too.

I DO plan to write this woman, very soon and perhaps meet someday.
