Hey everyone!
I got my dream job with the railroad in 2005, and then reality tried to strike me down in July of 2006 when I was diagnosed with MS. I was fortunate enough to keep my job, which I'm still employed. There has been obstacle after obstacle. I've been hospitalized four times, and bounced back as best I could. Trying to regain, what I could, what MS was trying to take away. It's been almost seven years, and three medicines later. The fight is never ending.
The last couple of weeks though I have seen possibly where this is headed and thought about what I never thought about before. When I was originally diagnosed, my neuroligist and I had a very long conversation. It was about getting as much time in as possible in my career. We've done very well but........I am fearful of the day when I have to throw in the towel.
I've always tried to stay the course, but I feel maybe I'm going off the path that has brought me this far. Not knowing how this is going to be, and what options I have is too much. Maybe I just think too much, and need to go back to the whole one day at a time thing.
Any feedback would be appreciated, I just need to talk this thing out.
