Welcome to my Journey!!!

My life as I once knew it changed on May 14, 2010 when I was told I have MS, (Multiple Sclerosis)
I have seemed to have accepted it fairly quickly. I think that deep down I've known something just wasn't "right" with my health for quite some time. For a few years I have thought I had a hormonal imbalance.
Actually with the diagnosis came a kind of sense of relief.

And so, My Jouney begins.........

Snapped out of it!!


Last week was a rough one for me as I had felt so very depressed. I couldn't figure it out & prayed so hard daily to be able to just "snap out of it".
It was quite difficult to do. My fatigue gets so severe that I just cant seem to accomplish even the simple tasks. I think one of the most difficult things for me to deal with is trying to explain how I am feeling. Because most of my symptoms are invisible it makes it difficult for others to understand. I get frustrated, depressed & want to hide at times. The cognitiive problems I am experiencing ie; forgetfulness, word-fishing, not being able to re-call recent occurings, & struggling with attention span are so difficult.

I shall move on however, and try and find humor in these things! :)

My Billy took me to Palm Springs on Sunday to take the Tram up the Mountain so that we could see if I could make the hike to the camp spot that we want to stay at in 2 weeks. I almost gave up, but with taking my time & plenty of rest stops along the way I made the 5 mile trek. I will definately be bringing my walking sticks next time because my balance is way off & my right foot very week from last "flare-up"
The weather was absolutely perfect. About 75 degrees.

I did "snap out of it". Nature and quality time with my man played a huge role in that!

My journey continues.........
