Dear Teaford, no one on here will judge you. We are all ms sufferers, and by the sounds of it you have done your bit for the rest of the world. I am sorry that your ms is so bad that you are having to have chemo shots. Change your way of praying and ask the Lord to take your pain away and heal your heart, I will pray in agreement with you and also I pray that your family will soften. Hang in there Teaford. God bless Jimeka

I feel alone too since I got MS. Most of friends/co workers have disappeared from my life the last six years. Same with my in laws, as I only have a brother living. My brother stops by but nobody else does anymore.....so you are not alone. This is a lonely disease.

I was in a wheelchair within one year of my dx as well. Such a successful career but eventually had to give up. Thank you for your service. My dad is (was) a Korean war vet...once a marine, always a marine he ways. At 84, he is still my rock:)
