I am new, 15-20 years removed. I plead no memory as far as how long it's been, but my thanks to L. for helping me get by dingy afloat. I got my dx in 05, but looking back after going through many symptoms I realized it goes back to the 80's, MS is sneaky that way. I want to say Hi and encourage everyone to maintain the fight and hold onto your sense of humor when the going gets rough.

Welcome back!
A sense of humor sure does help, as we make our way through this MS odyssey.
Hope you continue to post, and share how things are going with you.

Thanks KoKo! It's Halloweenie, an actual holiday here since my wife's mom passed away on a Halloween night. I've found MS takes away and doesn't return, so we have to improvise and not give up. Judging by my entry date here I see my numbers are off. Stay safe KoKo!

Thanks Mamabug! It's brought back many memories of the time after my dx. Taking baby steps here, much like my kind of walking now.
