So heard that since I’m disabled I can go back to college COMPLETELY on disabilities wallet so I went and spoke to a counselor and he asked ‘so what do you wanna become?’ And I said dr and he said ok disability can pay for that 😍😍😍 so my first day is August 25! Now I just feel like like oooooo I’m so lucky to be disabled!! 😂🙏🏼🙏🏼

Let’s talk about hobbies?

What do you do to keep your mind positive? Hobbies or things to pass the time? I work as a veterinary nurse. And as a disabled person, it rips my heart out to euthanize pets who have a disability that can thrive when given a chance. So, I take surrendered newborns from the clinic that would have b...

Just saw sm negative… Let us change it, how long has it been without progression on your DMT

On another place someone said how quickly they were disabled after Ms. What about you guys, how long has it been that you haven’t had progression while being on a DMT! I’m starting treatment sooon, and am in desperate need of it.

It's something everyday between the exhaustion and headaches/migraines and my back I rarely have a good day but I keep fighting it.i keep my little grand baby a few days a week my daughter helps me she lives with me and is disabled but she sure does help with her. I have a son which is my granddaughter daddy and a daughter in law. I'm recently divorced after 36 yrs he had a mid life crisis I think just completely different now and got remarried a few months after divorced but I’ve learned it’s his loss.

Vote for me?

Hello everyone! Question, is it to tacky to ask for your vote? I have been nominated to compete for “Super Mom” title. In order to win, I need to reach out to everyone who is willing to take time each day. I know it’s asking a lot but my friend who nominated me thought I’m a good representative for ...

Progression

Hello, there are here people in their late 40 and 50 with long years of Ms (like 10)? How is your life ? It’s true that we all have progression and will be disabled somehow?
