The Curious Case of Multiple Sclerosis Part 5

Bored as a Board When I was growing up, my mom or my dad, my sister, my grandmother, someone in my life used to like to say, ”if you’re bored, you’re boring.” This phrase has been ingrained on my brain since then. I want to do everything I can to not be boring, although I … Read more here…

Still a Little Lazy

Too Lazy Even for Me Makes an MS Comeback   The plan was to post a brand spanking new (where does that weird expression come from anyway?) blog today.  It really was.  Especially since the last two blogs have been repeats.   But then important things got in the way like visits with friends, a … Read more here…

12 Days of Christmas, MS Style

A multiple sclerosis Christmas carol   As you finish up all your last minute holiday preparations, please enjoy last year’s Christmas ditty.  And some fun giggle induced cartoons as well!

Or dolphins. Or maybe crabs. Let’s hope that if I ever feel the need to blog about … Read more here…

The Motley Two Go to Motley Crue

Multiple Sclerosis meets heavy metal   Ahhhh, there’s nothing like a good old summer head banging concert to remind you that you have multiple sclerosis.  Or that you are getting old.  I can’t tell which. Too often the things that make me feel old could either be signs of old age or signs of MS.  … Read more here…

A Zombie Goes Down the MRI Tube

Are you an MS zombie too? Earlier this week, someone posted the above picture in one of my Facebook MS groups. (Sorry, fellow MS’er and poster.  I didn’t want to steal your pic but I really liked it and was desperate for a blog post idea.) I laughed out loud at the picture and immediately … Read more here…

Out of the Mouth of Lucy

Multiple Sclerosis investigated by a six year old   Lucy is my cousin and she is six.  Technically, she is my great, great cousin.  And, as she is a great, great kid, that would be great except that two greats simply means that I am aging, greatly. (MS friends-if you were able to follow that … Read more here…
