Surfing the MS Energy Wave

If your MS is like mine, surviving a day is much like surfing. The ocean is an energy field and the waves come in, some higher and most with deep troughs. When I'm in between energy waves, down in the trough, I just dog-paddle along the best I can. When the wave crests, I feel like I'm surfing on a ...

Have you found your MS energy?

Have you changed your outlook on life or your priorities in some way since being diagnosed with MS?
