Lawbreaker

Multiple Sclerosis goes criminal   When I typed the title of this blog post I was saying to myself, laaaaaawwwww breaker, using a Matthew McConaughey legal thriller voice.   What does Matthew’s southern accent have to do with this blog? Nothing, it’s just how my brain works. So here’s a question, if multiple sclerosis is criminal, … Read more here…

Scary Brain, Scary Movie

A multiple sclerosis movie mash So for Halloween fun, I thought I would repost one of the first blogs I ever wrote; a blog that my readers call a classic.  Happy Halloween friends!   It’s the afternoon and I’m shuffling around my house, trying to focus. I have my lists; all the MS helpful tip … Read more here…

Gina Blue is Disabled Too

A chronic illness companion My car and I go back a long way, 10 years to be exact.  She was a pretty, blue, 2005, used Toyota Corolla that I bought in 2004. No, that is not a typo or a result of MS brain fog.  Weird as it seems, the 2005 cars came out early … Read more here…

But yes, for my friend’s wedding … Read more here…

An MS Doodle Dandy

Multiple Sclerosis patriotism   With the exception of my late teen/early 20’s years, I have never been much of a rebel.  I grew up with this intense need to please and so when someone tells me to do something, I do it. I floss daily. I get my car’s oil changed every 3500 miles. I … Read more here…

Seal of Approval

Multiple Sclerosis inspiration of the aquatic kind   In last week’s blog, I talked about whales.  Today’s blog is about seals.  Well, a seal, one seal in particular.  Who knows, maybe next week I will blog about sharks. Or dolphins. Or maybe crabs. Let’s hope that if I ever feel the need to blog about … Read more here…

Thar She Goes…..

Multiple Sclerosis goes whale watching Forgive me please if this blog post gets a little off the multiple sclerosis topic.  There will be a connection, I promise. Aren’t we with MS always connected to MS in some way?  The harder we try to disconnect to it the more connected we seem to be. The above … Read more here…
