About My Life With MS
Welcome to my MS world. I was happily clicking along in life when I had an acute onset of MS in 2005. I was stunned, shocked and left in bed for 6 weeks unable to walk or see. I went into remission and changed my life.
At first I felt sorry for myself:
-
I was a single mom of a 4 year old
-
tried to maintain a small house
-
hold a job
-
get healthy
-
manage all the responsibilities I had
I was determined to be positive about my new situation. I refused to let MS take over my life so I embarked on something totally out of character for me…I trained for a triathlon. It was an amazing experience.
Life started to turn around until July 2007 where I had relapse, after relapse, after relapse with the probable prognosis of Secondary Progressive MS. Not exactly what I wanted to hear.
With that news, I needed to change my life again. I quit my job because my body couldn’t handle the physical stress and looked for a job I could do from home. Now I am on a new journey. I work from home as a freelancer and I hope to try and help others find meaning and purpose in their lives when MS tries to take over.
Please use me as your support, your partner, your friend.
