Alive Again!
So wonderful to feel so good and alive again! I have MS, and it sure kicked me to the curb for the Winter. I was just plain OUT and down for the count. When you are so fatigued you can barely function, it isn’t a highly fulfilling life. Hard to accomplish much when you are asleep – except to gain weight!
I did finally learn how to knit socks, and for my fine-motor movement-impaired brain, that was a greater accomplishment that becoming a lawyer. Still pleased with that and now addicted to knitting. Thank you to the University of YouTube and the folks at KnitPicks.com for all the great instructional videos. While alone, unable to do much with MS fatigue, it helped me retain some sanity – and now I have a hobby I love. Have you ever worn homemade socks – they are heaven!
Most of you probably don’t know, but the major reason why people with MS end up disabled is not because of movement difficulties. The number one reason is fatigue – you just cannot (and I mean cannot) stay awake and functioning. It had me in its grasp like a python.
I’ve been blessed that my MS has been slow, rearing its ugly head in odd ways throughout my life, then disappearing (another trait of many types of MS). My mobility wasn’t affected and my main difficulty in life has always been fatigue. It sure had me this time, wouldn’t let up and if you aren’t already prone to depression, let me tell you months of withdrawal from life and people because you can’t get out will hammer you with it. Sure did it to me.
When my good friend, also with MS, told me she was about to embark on a new supplement regimen of optimal liquid nutrition, I listened and thought “yeah, yeah, (snake oil) good luck.” But as I watched the undeniable and overwhelming improvement in her entire physical condition, I could no longer deny she might be onto something and decided I have to try it.
Almost immediately, the depression was gone (not lessened – GONE), the fatigue lifted and improves every day. In less than a week, I was up, out and awake. Other physical problems that come with autoimmune diseases like MS, things I’d learned just to live with, disappeared (I won’t bore you with details). Thank God and my friend forever. I’ve rejoined life – and for those of you who never left it, you can’t imagine how beautiful, wonderful, awesome it is. I am so grateful.
And now it’s Springtime to boot! Yes, I’m still knitting socks – but no longer is it because it was the only thing I could do. Now I do it for relaxation and fun (ok – I’m addicted to knitting, it happens).
So blessed to be alive again!
Along with every thing which seems to be building inside this specific subject material, all your perspectives are actually fairly refreshing. Nonetheless, I am sorry, because I do not give credence to your whole suggestion, all be it exhilarating none the less. It appears to everyone that your commentary are generally not completely justified and in simple fact you are your self not thoroughly confident of the argument. In any case I did appreciate looking at it.
Awesome blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere? A design like yours with a few simple adjustements would really make my blog jump out. Please let me know where you got your design. Thanks

Your thought is excellent; the issue is something insufficient people are talking intelligently about. I’m happy which I stumbled across it with my try to find something relating to this.

The Earth4Energy e-book claims it can benefit it will save you as much as 80% inside your power bill, as well as perhaps even remove it completely. Does it live up our expectations? And not using a doubtYes.
Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass’ favor.
Hi! I’ve been following your web site for a long time now and finally got the courage to go ahead and give you a shout out from Kingwood Texas! Just wanted to tell you keep up the fantastic work!

With every little thing that appears to be building throughout this specific subject material, a significant percentage of points of view tend to be fairly refreshing. On the other hand, I am sorry, because I can not give credence to your whole theory, all be it stimulating none the less. It seems to everyone that your commentary are actually not entirely validated and in reality you are generally your self not even wholly certain of your argument. In any event I did appreciate examining it.

Incredible! This blog looks exactly like my old one! It’s on a totally different topic but it has pretty much the same page layout and design. Superb choice of colors!

My developer is trying to convince me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses. But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using Movable-type on a number of websites for about a year and am nervous about switching to another platform. I have heard very good things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can import all my wordpress posts into it? Any help would be really appreciated!
Greetings! This is my 1st comment here so I just wanted to give a quick shout out and say I truly enjoy reading your blog posts. Can you suggest any other blogs/websites/forums that go over the same topics? Thank you so much!
The very heart of your writing whilst appearing reasonable initially, did not really sit very well with me after some time. Someplace throughout the paragraphs you actually were able to make me a believer unfortunately only for a while. I however have a problem with your jumps in logic and one would do well to help fill in those gaps. If you can accomplish that, I could undoubtedly be impressed.
I’m not that much of a internet reader to be honest but your blogs really nice, keep it up! I’ll go ahead and bookmark your website to come back down the road. All the best
