Hello Everyone

[Thebusbysmom]

My 30 year old son was diagnosed with MS in November and I have been a member of this forum since December. I aim to support him in his journey and as I observe the interaction here, I see such a wonderful supportive community. Thank you for being so good for others.

I’m so Sorry to hear of your sons diagnosis of this terrible disease. It is so good to see that his mom is so concerned about what is going on with this disease.

Have a good day if it is hot where he is because if he gets tiered it’s the heat I use ice packs on my knees it does help.

Good luck to you and your son.

[Thebusbysmom in reply to ssdw1958]

Thank you for your kind words.

Your son is very blessed to have a mom who cares about him.

We do vent here at times, but the overall tone remains strongly positive. We all support one another here, and for some, this is the best source of support.

I don’t know if your son is willing or able to be part of this or another forum, but if not, you can give him support from us by proxy!

Give him a hug from all of us.

Thank you so much for your kindness.

[ssdw1958 in reply to greaterexp]

That goes ditto from me too. It might take awhile for him to realize this disease but be a good mom that you are already being and let him vent. I do have to say one more thing it might be best if he doesn’t say anything about the MS to people he works with, some people just don’t treat people with MS fairly. That’s my way of being BUT there are people that are extremely fair. I am not saying these things to scare you but just think before you do.

Bless you both

That sounds like good advice. Thank you for bringing that to my attention and I will be sure to pass it on to my son.

Hi Thebusbysmom and never let him think he's `less` than anyone else! ☺

I empathise with you. I have just had the worry for my 32 year old son, and with having it myself, I knew what his life would be like. Thank God all is test results came back negative. You and your son, please make your selves at home here and get all the support you need. We are like one big family here, and if you ever want any information on any thing, someone can normally help. A big hug to you, and I can tell by your post, you are a very caring, supportive Mum. I hope and pray that your son has a good neurologist who will help him make the best decisions for himself. Blessings Jimeka 🦋 🤗

So glad that they didn't find MS in your son.

Just diagnosed, check out Dr Aaron Boster on YouTube and start following his recommendations.

Thank you.

Hi Thebusbysmom ! I applaud you for being so proactive on behalf of your son. That’s awesome! So many MS’ers don’t have much family support. We are a wide range of ages and experiences here so feel free to post and ask questions.

[Thebusbysmom in reply to Raingrrl]

Thank you. I’m looking forward to the exchange of encouragement.

What a wonderful mom you are! Your son is blessed to have you, although I am so sorry he has ms. This forum truly is one big, loving family. It is a soft place to land. Welcome, come back often, I am sure you have so much to offer and to gain, like big electronic hugs! Love, Kelly
