Yvonne An MS inspired parody What is with me and show tunes lately? I don’t even really like show tunes yet I can’t seem to get them out of my head. Just a few weeks ago I posted a blog based on the song A Few of My Favorite Things and now the song I Feel … Read more here…
An MS transformation I recently joined a Facebook group for people with multiple sclerosis. The group is awesome and if anyone is looking for an online community where you can ask questions, meet other people in circumstances similar to yours, or just joke and vent, I encourage you to look into it.

An MS’er looks at the new and improved So I know that I mention (complain, whine, lament) here a lot about the extreme fatigue that comes with MS. But it is a fact and with this fact, comes the fact that many an MS’er has learned to take shortcuts to save energy. Most of these … Read more here…
