I love your signature quote! I've seen a few of your other posts on here and have been meaning to say HI back, after all I did start this thread (you can see how often I am on here, but hope to chat sometime!

Hi there. I was DX 2 1/2 years ago and still coming to terms. It can be a rocky ride. I feel a little less "alone" with reading ppls posts on here. I think it helps to swap stories and see that you aren't the only one going through the different symptoms and things that go on with this thing.

I am 39 female with BF and 16 month old baby in NE

How about you guys?

Oh, you're not TOO busy (with a 16 month old baby!)
My "baby" is 32 years old now with 3 babies of her own (my 3 grandbabies)! (she's the bride in my avatar pic). I was dx'd with MS while pregnant with her (1979). I was 22 y.o. at the time, 54 now (although I still think like a teenager ).

Hope to hook up with all of you Philly people AFTER winter is over, of course. .

For all the Philly people... I looked into meetup to see if they had an MS group in our area, but they don't.

I am in Upper Bucks. I have thought about starting a group on the meetup.com website, keep seeing so many people post about being alone or not being included in lunches / days out. Thought a meetup group might be a good social activity, not just going to an MS meeting, but planning for movies, lunches, shopping trips, etc. I've belonged to different groups there over the years - book clubs, single moms, foodie, etc. - well why not a social group for MS, why does it always need to be talking about MS, just plan to have a fun outing!

If anyone from the SEPA area is interested in joining a meetup group, my email is in my profile, send me an email. It's a monthly fee for the hosting on their website and want to know this is something people would be interested in before wasting any money

Thanks!

Sellersville Theatre is one of my favorite venues for music, shows, etc!

Maybe this spring we could all catch one of their free
movie nights or catch something at the IMAX theatre
near Fort Washington I think....

Thanks for thinking about this....great idea!
