Hello. I thought this introduce yourself thing sounded really nice, so here I am.
I am 39 years old and was diagnosed in 2008. How long have I had MS...probably 25 years judging by what my body, eyes, brain, etc have been through...all of which was a medical anomaly that was treated with antibiotics because it had to be some sort of infection....you know how it goes.
Anyhow..problem identified!
Yes, I have MS, and as it turns out Epilepsy (Go Team Me!), and small benign tumor on the pituitary gland (can it get any better?).
As irritating and frustrating and ultra-painful as some days are, I hold onto the fact that I am still here. I have a fantastic son who is seven. I home-school my boy and consult from home for my own business. I live on a micro-farm with 2 dogs, 2 cats, 2 carnival goldfish, 2 geese, 6 chickens, 4 guinea hens, and recently added 2 horses. I like to garden when I can and when able, and I like to stay home which is a good thing as I can no longer drive more than the 10 miles to town (seizures). My husband is the most awesome man any woman could want to be married to and I am blessed. My church family is fantastic and I pray to God everyday that a cure be found for not just MS, but all ailments...or at least the pathway to cures be lighted.
So glad to be here and looking forward to learning and sharing.
