Blogging to keep my sense of humor

[JHollo]

Hi there everyone,

I'm new to this community and relatively new to my MS diagnosis (Sept '09). I have a toddler and am navigating the disease / treatment while playing with my 2-year old daughter. I'm sure I'm not alone and I'm happy to find a forum to connect with others who are parenting with MS.

Lately I've been blogging as a way to share my experiences with friends and family. It really helps me to keep a sense of humor about all of this and remember what's important. I'd highly recommend it!!

If anyone is interested in following, the blog is at

One request -- If any of you have blogs or websites about parenting with MS, Swank recipes, life on Rebif, or raising a toddler, please let me know! I'd love to follow it!

Great to be here. Thanks for your support!

Jennifer

I'm so new at this... Finally read the rules and I realize now that posting a URL isn't allowed in the posts. I've placed it on my profile in case anyone is interested. Thanks!

Hi Jennifer,

I just stated blogging as well. It's fun and gives me something to do.

I have just gone back on the Swank Diet and actually I am going to start posting some recipes on my blog.

To get to my blog (I made it my MSWorld homepage), all you have to do is click on my name in any post I have made and you can get to it by clicking on "visit skeezix's home page". You should put your blog address in your profile, or make it your MSWorld homepage as well.

There is a blog site that has a list of MS bloggers. I am sure some of those blogges have toddlers. Just google; Carnival of MS Bloggers.

Take care and happy blogging!

I'm excited to check out your blog and the other rec, too!! Will have to wait until my daughter's bedtime, though... She just woke up from her nap and I can hear her yelling, "Mommy! Come get me!"

Thanks for the info! I've put my blog URL on my profile (assuming I did it right). I'll work on making it my homepage tonight.

Thanks again!
