See this empty syringe? That’s not just any empty syringe. That’s the LAST one I have to inject into my body, based on my current plans for my MS treatment. After almost 4 years of giving myself shots three times a week, I am switching drugs. I’m thankful to report this is a proactive measure, … Continue reading New Treatment
I was recently asked to share my story about how I have prevailed in some aspect of my life. This was shared on social media and I am so excited about the feedback I have received. I have made new friends in women that have reached out to talk, and connected with old friends who … Continue reading She Prevails
Play the hand you’re dealt, and trust that God is Sovereign. This was a small part of our church service yesterday. This was shared by our pastor from his friend’s social media post. At first you read this and you think “sure, great words to live by” but it turns out that this woman has … Continue reading Play the hand you’re dealt, and trust that God is Sovereign.
So tonight my youngest and I had our typical roller coaster of a night. Things we’re fine until bedtime. Really good actually. He came to snuggle with me on the couch and told me he loves me to the moon and back. I held him for a few, and gave him a few aggressive kiss … Continue reading 76 minutes strong
I’ve been so busy, I haven’t even had time to think about writing anything lately. I’ve had lots of fun events over the past month, and I feel so grateful for each and every moment.

Before I was diagnosed, I did not understand the disease or what it was, and especially … Continue reading I have MS, but MS doesn’t have me
For the past week I have spent way too much of my mental space thinking about that damn doctors appointment, and the future of my MS treatments. I am torn on my feelings on so many levels, and I am praying for answers to so many things. Let me bring you in on a secret, … Continue reading Decisions
Yesterday was an insanely busy day, but as promised, I have updates on my appointment with my new neurologist. This is lengthy, but so was my appointment! First of all, the almost two hour drive (each way) is not an issue for me. Everyone mentioned how awful that would be, but thankfully I am used … Continue reading My Dr. Appointment
News day! I am switching neurologists. I have been quiet on this transition with most everyone, but today I get to meet with my new neurologist for the first time, and I am both excited and nervous about this. I am thankful that my switch to a new neurologist is not a result of worsening … Continue reading Out With The Old, In With The New
I feel like so much of my life I’ve been waiting to “grow up”, or waiting for whatever is to come next that is supposed to be this ideal place in my life. I remember thinking when I was 16, “I just need to get through high school, college will be so much fun…” And … Continue reading When I grow up
