Hello my hands are so stiff and tired, I’m doing lots of emails at the moment so I think that’s aggravated them. Does anyone use creams or soak them to help ease the stiffness?

Hey everyone 👋 I’m Dylan, a 38-year-old guy living with MS out here in Saskatchewan. I run a legal weed dispensary (yes, I’m that guy), and I use dark humor, sarcasm, and a whole lot of cannabis to get through the weirdness that is life with MS.I figured it was time to find a space with people who get it the fatigue, the brain fog, the “oh cool, my leg’s just doing its own thing now” moments. I’m just here to connect, share some laughs (the darker the better), and not feel like I’m the only one in the snow belt dealing with this.If you're in or around Saskatchewanor even if you're not say hi. I don’t bite. Unless it's a bad MS day and my jaw spasms. (Kidding. Mostly.)Looking forward to getting to know some fellow weirdos on this ride

Living with MS has taught me that strength doesn’t always look like fighting. Sometimes, strength is resting, asking for help, and simply choosing to keep going. 💙There are days when my body doesn’t cooperate and moments when the journey feels heavy, but I remind myself that I am more than my diagnosis. I’m still here, still hopeful, and still grateful for every little victory.MS is part of my story, but it will never be the whole story. 💙🦋

Awkward moment

Today I was driving a 16 seater and stopped at the traffic light when Brain fog/Fatigue kicked in and I ended up missed the change of traffic lights and my work colleague needed to snap me out of it. Luckely we had a conversation previously about Brain fog/fatigue, so it wasn't some much of a supris...

To every MS warrior, 💙Some days may break your rhythm, but never let them break your spirit. You may have difficult moments, but you are still here, still fighting, and still moving forward.Your strength is bigger than your struggles. Keep going, keep believing, and never give up on yourself. One day at a time. One victory at a time. 💪🏽💙

💙 A Word of Encouragement for My MS Family 💙Today, remind yourself that you are stronger than the days that try to convince you otherwise. Living with MS can bring uncertainty, exhaustion, pain, and moments when you simply wonder, “How much longer can I do this?”But look at you—you’re still here. Still trying. Still pushing forward. And that matters. 🌷Don’t feel guilty for resting. Don’t compare your journey to someone else’s. Some days you may accomplish a lot, and other days getting through the day may be your biggest achievement. Both are victories.Take today one step, one breath, and one moment at a time. Be patient with yourself and celebrate every little bit of progress.You are not your diagnosis. You are still you—with dreams, strength, purpose, and so much life ahead. Keep going. Better days are possible. ❤️💪

To everyone living with MS: please remember that you are stronger than you realize. ❤️Some days you may feel like you’re winning, and other days simply getting through the day may feel like a victory. And that’s okay. You don’t have to be strong every moment. You’re allowed to rest, to cry, to feel frustrated, and to have difficult days.But when tomorrow comes, take another breath and keep going. Even if you can only move forward by 1%, that is still progress. 🌷Celebrate the little victories. Be gentle with yourself. Give yourself credit for the battles nobody else can see.Your MS does not define your worth, your dreams, or the beautiful person you are. Keep believing, keep hoping, and keep on keeping on. 💪❤️To every MS warrior reading this: you are not alone. We’re walking this journey together. 🧡

So I listen to Christina Applegates podcast called Messy.. it’s about her having MS and she calls the Electric wheelchair a beep beep. I want one so bad. But my mom refuses me all the time cuz she think I’ll run people over. The are so rude in my manual wheelchair.
