don't get me wrong,time is still flying.i am late for my ocrevus treatment by 1 month because just dealing with so much.having it sept. 14th and going to do the 2 hour one again.my broken upper rt arm has healed after 10 weeks and a nasty fall, good news. Bad news my husband is still so sick, still has to have his heart valve repaired and goes to dialysis 3x a week.he has an appt the same time i am getting my treatment,hope he comes back with an appt of when the are going to do this and then hopefully his kidneys will start working again and it will get him out of heart failure.my stress level is so high and we know how great that is for ms.i am also have to do errands for our business.so i can say this too shall pass, but i have cried enough tears to fill a pond, just wondering am i the only cry baby? how many tears have you cried ? luv y'all, pam from alabam( they should hand out anti-depressants at the neurologists like candy) but i still can drive!!

i remember going to a therapist and telling her i was crying too much. she looked at me with this shocked expression, then listed all the things i was coping with at the time. she said she'd be worried about me if i wasn't crying and stressed. sometimes things just suck.

Sometimes letting the tears fall is the bravest and strongest thing to do. Your list is full and with so many challenges. It’s good you’re allowing those emotions to flow out however they need to instead of holding them in until you burst! Sending you love and strength! Be proud of and patient with yourself. 💜❤️💜❤️

Big hug Pam, don’t worry about tomorrow, my mum always used to tell me to take care of today, as tomorrow never comes . You have a lot on your plate, but if you can, go outside or look through the window and see what you are missing. It could be a flower, butterflies flying around, a bird sitting on a branch, it’s the lovely little things that help take your mind off your own troubles, if only for a minute. Remember Pam, you are never given more than you can handle you are in my thoughts and prayers, blessings Jimeka 🤗🤗

You are in my thoughts and prayers, Pam in Alabam. I've learned not to question God about the load I can handle. I used to say, God, don't you think You might be over estimating me again? And every time, He would pile on more, and I would always grow stronger, at least enough to deal with what I had to for the time. I could almost hear God chuckling as he watched me, He is right there with you and your husband, too! I talk to Him while I drive!
