Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic disease which affects the brain and spinal cord. MS can cause a variety of symptoms, including changes in sensation, visual problems, muscle we...
Has anybody ever noticed that there seem to be just as many people that ask about having tattoos with MS, as there are people that ask about having sex with MS? Are tattoos that f'n great that this is what weighs on a person's mind when they get diagnosed? Does MS affect that much white trash? I'm just kidding. Just because you have a tattoo, it doesn't mean you're white trash....
In the standup routine I developed for myself but never took to the stage, I have a routine where I talk about really happy people, and that the only reason I could see why people where truly that happy was if they were convinced that they knew where they were going to go after they die. And how my mom fit that description, being a lifelong Catholic, and I go on about all the silly things she doe...
OK this is the third time in a few weeks that I have gotten sick to my stomach. I don't think it's the flu. I went out one night, ate mexican seafood and drank a wine that I have never heard of. I need to stop drinking, I know, but it was a fun night and I was really stressed. I hardly have fun anymore so I thought I deserved some fun. Now I have been sick for days. My doctor is...
I have been in a lot of pain because there seems to be a war in my head. Things are much more chaotic than usual as Lisa seesm to be gathering strength and she is capable of really making big trouble as she will take money to have sex. Lisa almost got me us in trouble once when she was nearly arrested for prostitution and we have been tryng very hard to control her since then...
For those of you who have been following my journal, and know of my recent injuries sustained earlier this month, I want to tell you of a message I got from a DS member (not a friend). This member suffers from cerebellar ataxia, spinal cord injury and MS. She is in a wheelchair, which is permanent for her. She sent a very caring message to me ...
So my girlfriend saved me that night, bringing me home from the ER. I could walk the next day, but slowly, painfully. I felt black and blue from the fall. I used a walker as much as possible. Then, two nights later, I was in the kitchen, sans walker, beginning to warm up some leftover Chicken Marengo for dinner. The phone rang - it...
I would say I'm not sure I get it, but I guess I do. I left DS a few months back, and swore I wouldn't be back. But I thought my reasonings were a little more...well, I thought I was looking at the situation clearly. I had lost my audience, due to my own lack of involvement in reading other journals and answering posts, and there didn't seem to be much need for that first group of us ...

I found Tember as if he were sleeping. He had Died sometime between yesterday about 9 am and today. I think he had been gone since yesterday. Not a mark on him. Possibly he just had too many things wrong that we could not see. He will be missed. He will be my last cat. I had Trucker for 18 years. ... I love all of you and though to some this is a small thing...fo...
