Update: I got the recumbent, no comments on the whale horn it is gonna be so gone! and maybe tomorrow I will get it all clean and tuned up.
What I do not wish to become is the person who wallows in their disease nor to I wish to be one whom pretends everything is spiffy. I hope to achieve a balance here somewhere LOL.
Reality is I used to be able to haul ass on my mountain bike – really I did. Now I am working on not falling over ;). The duh factor is tough shalt not ride thy motorcycle, although waxing it these last four years has been a motivator. I have a spiffy recumbent E bike in storage. I thinking emm if I can get over the geek factor I might give it a go.
I saw the neurologist today and I get to go to physical theraphy and learn to walk better – in her words before I hurt myself. Well . … I have been stubborn thinking that walking about looking drunk is a good thing cause a least I am moving! I also got some drug to help hopefully with the fatgue. Coolness. I hope between the two I can get back out hiking and taking pics.
Well, off to storage for now.

I don’t think writing about your progress or steps back is wallowing in it. There are lots of others out there who are also struggling, trying to make good decisions re treatment and life, and how you approach it will be something important to them.

Thank you for being one of my two readers LOL. I am getting two readers and an average of 50 spams a day.
I am so new to this idea that I have MS so I am doing the roller coaster thing right now. I have started reading some web based support forums and some blogs but have not taken the posting on them step as of yet.
The local MS support group was a bust. I even went twice just in case it was me not getting it haha. But, apparently the gal who ran them who was most excellent has retired and the new gal is nice enough but has not a clue as to group dynamics let the two hours be controlled by certain people who spent most of the time arguing politics. She did read something taken from the National MS site about drugs but it was all acronyms and study codes that did a fly by over my head. Most of the support groups are on vacation till January cause of the holidays.
Keep in touch and love your latest photo’s glad your posting them again!
