True story really. I am going to stay with my oldest son, here home my other son is overwhelmed, he doesn’t feel comfortable being too far from me🥹 his other siblings have minimized what he seeing maximally! We talk and I do understand his feelings, they are valid! So I’m me meeting my 2 granddaughters who are both under 4 so I am excited yet I have zero income😫 my flight and thing were gifted to me. I’m am grateful for that. I wanted to get to meet my granddaughters before anything else happens. I have hired counsel to assist me in obtaining Disability, I apply a few times and was denied. I can’t even afford my medication. Not looking for sympathy, I guess, just wanted to be more clear, I ABSOLUTELY hate MS and what it’s done to my confidence, yeah I don’t trust myself,& I before this all I was actually looking forward to turning 50! Yeah made it to 50 but I don’t like how I feel and how unsure I am now about the things I was MOST confident about doing, not so much these days and it makes me ANGRY cuz I didn’t plan this nor have the resources to live with this confidently. Praying for a steady body to keep doing what it HAS been doing for 49 years!! Health care is NOT caring these days and I can only say, timing has been my lack for some time now. I digress have a awesome MS’n day everyone. 💜🫶🏾🤟🏾💪🏾🤞🏾✌🏾

Does anyone else with MS have a problem when they are down on the floor getting back up? I just had E M T'S leave after picking me up off the floor. Twice this past month it has happen. How embarrassing that is. I try everything and nothing works. I feel like a turtle on his back and just wiggle back and forth. Any body got any little tricks on how to get back up?
