to help spread the word I have been actively tweeting, and I have also been sharing the MSWorld 2014 video.

I love that video and webpage! I included it with my daily MS Awareness Week emails to my contacts. I've also included articles shared by msworld, etc. thank you so much.

I also send email updates with info, videos, etc as I'm not mobile at the moment for bake sales n stuff. But I spread the word of this incredibly supportive forum.

I have a link to my walk ms page on my email signature, and i brought some cards to the drs office that promote walk ms. I know it's a different organization than MS world, but I don't have cards so I use my big mouth and I include often links to msworld, such as your mentioned video, etc. and I donate to you, and ask others to donate too. I'm tired at the mo, sorry sloppy writing style.

I try to share my story and knowledge of resources that are available, etc. in hopes it will help others, even random people without MS, it's amazing how many people light up when they realize, I'm not the only one feeling alone- we're in this together. We've all been there hopefully more can say, been there done that. No more alone, we are connected in ways we may not be accustomed to nor desire; we ARE connected. Sometimes it's all we can do to just say a silent prayer, and that is powerful. Then comes the abundance of miracles in helping one another.

MS WORLD IS A TREMENDOUS LIFELINE- thank you for being here!!!

Btw, when I've told my doctors about these message boards, that the moderators share their experiences too, step in, help to encourage thread responses (which are incredibly fast and have helped me for years!), etc. they have seemed happy to know and welcomed the feedback. So I hope your good work continues on, I will continue to do all I can to help one another too.

Bless you!

Oh, just generally staggering about. "What's wrong with you?", "That'd be MS."

New Starts

MS Awareness month is one that I shed reluctance to share with many my MS journey by starting a blog and info webiste. I recently shared my personal stories and felt empowered by sharing and reading others experiences as well. With my love of people and of writing it seemed the right thing to do.
March ws the month16 yrs ago I was diagnosed, right after my spring b-day. Surprise! The journey as been hard, but the lessons invaluable, so I will continue to share.

My best to all,
Lexine
