  • Life would have been more normal

    Monday, August 4, 2008 | A Painful story

    If I didn't have MS my life would have been different. My life would have been more normal. (I didn't say 'happier') MS has made me irrevocably depressed and unbearably lonely.

    Sunday, January 18, 2009 | A Painful story

    The first half hour of the movie is fil...

    It was a good movie;  I came home, rese...
