    • About Me

      Aloha;) I'm originally from Canada, but after I graduated from high school I moved to beautiful Maui. I get to do what I love (working with children and disabled people), and I feel so blessed for that! I have a wonderful husband and 2 cats, .... I think that looks can sometimes be deceiving though from the outside a lot of people think I have the perfect life but WOW that could not be farther from the truth!!!.... anywho I'm excited to meet other people on this site and being able to support each other in this sometimes crazy journey called life.

      Hello,
      never worry until you actually have something to worry about. see a doctor before you drive yourself insane. ms can present in many ways but so can so many other things that's why it's so difficult to diagnos.

      Oh, boy! Take a deep DEEP breath. You will be OK, MS or no. I was first diagnosed with MS at the tender age of 26. I had a different frame of mind however. For the first 14 years or so, I thought of MS as a nuisance. Yet as the symptoms worsened I had to adapt. You will too. Do not give up. You have a child.... many women who have MS cannot have children. I am one of those women. I had a miscarriage and soon after had a relapse. My doctors advised me not to get pregnant again, so at least you have a child in your life. Research various resources in your community to help you adjust. Many hospitals have social workers who have all sorts of info. Create and gather a support group. Lastly, you may not have MS at all. Many symptoms can mimic MS, so wait until you have more answers before you start anything.
