Today we went back to see my MS specialist in Nashville to discuss my recent hospital stay and what caused it. It appears to be part of the relapse that I was having a couple weeks ago. What he told us that was very surprising is that he categorized it as mild in comparison to what could happen. I am going to continue taking Rebif injections three times a week. He told us this medication will help protect my brain and will help me to live a longer and hopefully active life. It just takes time. What he reminded us is that this is a brain and spinal cord disease and therefore is very unpredictable. I am a rule follower by nature so whatever I am told to do I will. I appreciate all of the thoughts and prayers. This is just a bump in the road and I hope the road is long because I can handle the journey.
In all of the stress of this day it gave me great solice to come home and work with my daughter to go through her out grown clothes to be passed along to another needy student. It helped us put into perspective how even in these trying times we have so much and we are very lucky
