HI....

[MSMOBILITYMAN]

The best prescription for loneliness is friendship.
For those of us who are homebound and have little social contact, the perfect prescription can be just a friendly interaction .like an in person meeting near the home of the home bound...MS people meeting at a local coffee shop/restaurant or any place accessible to people in wheelchairs.

I'VE BEEN L@@KING FOR OTHERS THAT WOULD LIKE TO MEET UP WITH ME AS A MOBILITY POWER CHAIR OR SCOOTER RIDER--WE CAN ROCK&ROLL ON TO SOME PLACE...LIKE TO "MARYLAND LIVE" CASINO...THE MALL, B & A TRAIL...A NICE ACCESSIBLE RESTAURANT, OR SOME FUN PLACE? MAYBE EVEN A CHURCH? -for heaven sakes-
SO LETS GO ROLL TOGETHER SOMETIME... WE CAN HANG OUT & DO SOMETHING FUN?
(I do use MTA Mobility to haul me from my home to where ever?)

IF YOU HAVE A NURSING OR HOME CARE GIVER BACKGROUND -THEN WE SHOULD TALK
YOU PROBABLY DO KNOW OF SOME FOLKS THAT WOULD BE POSSIBLY INTERESTED IN THIS MOBILITY IMPAIRED DISABLED RIDERS GROUP

ITS TRUE..SOME OF US JUST SIMPLY NEED COMPATIBLE MS PLATONIC FRIENDS.TO DO FUN THINGS WITH...

OK--HOPE YOU ARE SOMEONE THYAT ISN'T ASHAMED 2B SEEN WITH WHEELCHAIR GUY WITH A PEE HOSE OR URINE BAG?
.. IF SO--MAYBE WE CAN START TALKING..OR E-MAILING SOON?

HI WELCOME TO MSWORLD. IT'S GOOD TO HAVE YOU. THIS WEBSITE HAS BEEN VERY HELPFUL TO ME.

I DON'T LIVE IN BALTIMORE, BUT I LOVED THE CITY WHEN I WAS THERE FOR A MEETING. IF I WAS ANYWHERE CLOSE I WOULD LOVE TO BE IN YOUR GROUP! SOUNDS LIKE A LOT OF FUN. I LIVE IN ALABAMA AND THERE IS NOT A SUPPORT GROUP IN OUR AREA SO THIS WEB SITE HAS BEEN A LIFE LINE FOR ME.

DURING MY DX PERIOD WHERE I WAS IN LIMBO FOR SEVERAL YEARS, I HAD NO SUPPORT FROM MY SPOUSE OR FROM SOME OF MY CLOSEST FRIENDS. I LOST MY CLOSEST FRIENDS EXCEPT FOR ONE AND I LOST MY HUSBAND TOO EVEN THOUGH WE ARE STILL MARRIED, BUT THIS PAST FEBRUARY, RIGHT AFTER A SURGERY HE ASKED ME FOR A DIVORCE.

SO I AM IN LIMBO AGAIN, HE'S "ALLOWING" ME TO STAY UNTIL I CAN GET DISABILITY AND INSURANCE SO THAT I CAN BE INDEPENDENT.

IF I LIVED UP THERE I WOULD SURELY JOIN YOUR GROUP EVEN THOUGH I AM MOBILE AND ONLY REQUIRE A CANE FROM TIME TO TIME.

I ADMIRE YOUR POSITIVE ATTITUDE. I MISS MY HUGE CIRCLE OF FRIENDS AND MY ACTIVE SOCIAL LIFE, I LOVE BEING AROUND PEOPLE AND LAUGHING AND JOKING AND HAVING A GOOD TIME. WE PRETTY MUCH STAYED ON OUR BOAT WHEN I WASN'T WORKING, PARTYING AND HAVING FUN WITH MY FRIENDS. I REALLY MISS IT.

I HOPE YOU FIND LOTS OF NEW FRIENDS TO WHEEL AROUND WITH. IT CAN BE HARD TO FIND A NEW CIRCLE OF FRIENDS, IT HAS BEEN A CHALLENGE FOR ME.

DO YOU HAVE MS OR DO HAVE MS WITH OTHER COMPLICATIONS?

How long have you had MS? This is not what I signed up for.

Thanks for your message reply

Yes, thank you for your kind words...I wish you could ride one of my electric mobility vehicles with me sometime.

I was DX'ed by the prestigious Cleveland Clinic MS dept back about 10 years ago.
Then in 2006 a doctor told me I had Diabetic Neuropathy...then another Neurologist said I had TM or
Transverse Mylitis
so I may have a mix-mash of them all...they have turned me into a partial quadriplegic...but, I am still alive.

You please just pray and use your subconscious mind and imagine the best..and sometimes a miracle will happen.
