Hello kozubowsm, it's Fancy1959 welcoming you to this wonderful chat room. MS attacks a variety of individuals from all fields in life and work. I was a section supervisor/driver trainer for a large school district in Central kentucky. I supervised between 70 to 90 people and 32 to 40 school buses on a daily basis. In July I will have been married 30 years. I have a beautiful stepdaughter and 3 sons all of whom I am so very proud of. They boys are all three Eagle Scouts. I live in A Little Piece of Heaven in the middle of horse country just outside Lexington Ky. We have a 28 acre farm surrounded by the large horse farms, the kind you see in movies. Horses have been a passion of mine since I was 6 years old. I couldn't think of anywhere else in the world I'd rather live.

Hi, it's Purpletustin here in San Diego area. I've had MS around 28 years, only diagnosed 8 years ago. I'm told I've graduated LOL to SPMS.

One of my friends rides therapy horses for MS. Are u able to do this? If not, maybe u can ck with your MS Society to see if available?? If not, great 2nd career.

I'm a 71 year old grandma. My husband and my boys tell me I'm pretty irreverent. I do believe they're right.

In my working years I worked in clinical trials in cancer research center. I built the laboratories, clean rooms, etc.

Best job ever is being grandma.

Welcome to this wonderful group of our fellow MS friends.

Hi, I am from Northern AZ, 63 years old, married for 38 yrs, and a retired litigator. I wasn't diagnosed until 2010. MS just didn't go well with being a trial lawyer. My DMT is Tecfidera. It seems to be doing its job. Just FYI, I was a law professor full time for 3 yrs, and adjunct for 1 semester. I much preferred practicing.
