Prayers going up right this minute Sally!! I know the feeling well......every time I have an episode that affects my walking, balance, etc. it puts the questions in my mind about what I would do if I couldn't stay alone anymore.

But.....worrying about what "might happen" is, IMHO, pointless and just a waste of energy. Not saying that I don't ever do it.....I just try really hard not to 'cause MS or not life is going to happen and I intend to stay as much a part of it as I can. I'm not goin' down without a fight!!

Now....I will whine about how HOT it is here!!! Gonna be in the 90's this week. Hot and humid......

Well, my whine isn't ms related but can I do it just the same? Why is it everytime I get ahead something pops up to set me back? Why did my freezer konk out and cost me $278? Why is my mom talking behind my back and why do I care? She had brain surgery, she isn't right, right? And someone please tell me how it got to June 2nd already????????



Thank you Sally.

I have been in a nasty mood for several days. I also hate this ************* disease, and I too fear that I will not remain independent. I detest having to ask friends to take me to med appointments when I have been told not to drive. I want to remain teaching, and do not want to have to move back to my hometown (where some of my siblings live) which is an economically, depressed area of Ohio that has become a bit of a ghost town. I hope to be able to move to Austin, Texas when I retire (not forced to quit)even though it is as hot as **** there. My younger sis and her family live in Austin, and I love it there.

I also can't stand waiting for the results of medical tests. My colonoscopy showed 3 polyps on Wednesday and my doctor said that one looked pre cancerous. I am also waiting for the reults of my MRI this past Friday. I definitely do not like feeling helpless at times.

Sally, Hope you are feeling better soon, and hope you realize what you did by granting us permission to whine. You opened a HUGE bag of worms!
