A young MS friend of mine, Sarah, is in very early labor. She is also in the first week of a full blown Transverse Myelitis attack, and is numb, and in terrible pain, from the upper chest down. She is having a very hard time, and it's only just begun.
I honestly can't imagine a much worse situation. Could you please keep her in your thoughts and prayers. Cherie

She's dilated 1.5 cm right now, and not due for another 7 weeks. The TM numbness started a few days ago, but reached chest level today.
I am hoping she delivers before this attack escalates though, and TM usually takes about a week (after reaching the chest), before it will advance to the very difficult stage. She was dx during/following her last pregnancy, about 3 yrs ago. It seems she has left a bladder infection too long (she's supposed to be cathing 2 X a day but has had a hard time doing that consistently with her big tummy) . . . I am very worried about her and her mom. I am also concerned about how she will manage over this next 12 weeks with a new baby. Thanks for your support. She's going to need all that she can get. Cherie

That poor girl. 7 weeks is a bit early for the little one, but I'm sure that Sara and the baby will be in good hands.
Adding them both to my prayers Cherie .... please keep us up to date.
