You are following my blog and now I am following yours
I need to connect with other after dealing with is 21 year now. I am 37. Mother of 3 sons and things have gotten bad the past few years.
There is a British comedian Jim Sweeney with MS who has a YouTube of an interview on a BBC Morning show. Could I identify!
Thanks for visiting my site, I appreciate the interconnectedness that happens spontaneously.
Although a lot of press has been erroneously given “legs” with the fear of dying from MS, you might still wan to add Ozzy and Sharon Ozbourne’s son, Jack. Plus, David, the son of Alan Osmond also has MS.
Kudos: You have a great blog!
Thanks so much! I will add them soon.
