thanks for sharing.
i understand your posts (but others may need some help). i've been an RN for 37 yrs. dx'd rrms to spms 5 yrs ago. had to quit working in '05 because of cognition and mobility issues. i worked in the NICU and was always standing under open warmers. way too hot and made me into a wet noodle. looking forward to more of your posts.

Nurse Nancy, We are kindred spirits! I was a pediatrician and often sweltered under the warmers - that was before MS. I can't even stand my home over 69 degrees. Thank God air conditioning is tax deductible!

I think it depends on the State. I know in Idaho it's not. I've asked.

Av8rgirl is correct. I couldn't find data on a federal deduction, but many states do have one or a tax credit. Phooey!

I knew someone with MS, who had an outdoor inground pool covered by Insurance.  No kidding.

My doc said that she could write me an rx for a therapeutic pool and my insurance would cover it. I thought long and hard about it b/c I would love one. I talked to my insurance company and they would have paid 50% of the cost. But they also said that it would be cheaper if I would join a health club and they would probably over ride the recommendation and tell me to try that first. They would pay for a membership.
