Hi Everybody, I write a gratitude list every day (more or less). Today i am grateful for all the support I receive, including you all, for heat, that my hands are working, that I'm starting Mavenclad next week, that I can work from home, that i have more than the basic needs filled a day at a time. Please share what you have to be grateful for. it would be a big help to me. thanks.

I am grateful that God is with me, that I can walk and talk, and for each day that He gives me on this place we call home. I am grateful for my Son, his wife and my 2 wonderful granddaughters. I am so grateful for all of you and the support I receive here, I am grateful for my home, my car, my garden and all the stuf I treasure. I am so grateful for my furbabies, who keep me company every day, and are always so giving of their love. They are my family, too. I am very grateful for my 2 best friends, who check on me every day, Joan, a friend for 20+ years, and my dear friend Grace, who has been my very best friend for over 50 years.

Love it! πŸŽ‰ I go through a mental rotation of things, people, etc I'm thankful for often.

Today I am grateful for not having anywhere to be! πŸŽ‰ For NyQuil, Kleenex, and for hubs bringing home the best chicken wings I've ever had. For the sweetness of my children that I get to enjoy more of as they grow. V went to spend her bday gift card today (I forgot about it 2mo ago πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ) and she bought a present for Val with some of her money, on her own accord πŸ₯°πŸ₯° Warm hats are high on my list lately 🀣πŸ₯Ά Mavenclad for treating me well so far. Lucid dreams...I had the best freaking treehouse the other night and I would love to visit there again! The leaves were like pillows, and I made an awesome swing out of some branches so I could swing until I got sleepy 🀣🀣🀣 I'm aware of sleep troubles in la la land apparently πŸ€”

I'm excited to hear how your journey with Mavenclad goes, and I hope it's a winner πŸŽ‰ Feel free to message me anytime if you need a pal in the trenches πŸ™

thanks K, question. I just stopped aubagio yesterday and told not to start M yet. How long were you inbetween medications?

kdali profile image
kdaliβ€’ in reply toSandydemop

There was no wait time for me because I was already due for my Ocrevus infusion at the time it was written, but ended up waiting for other reasons. Does Aubagio have a wash out time? My MS Lifelines nurse was very good about giving me the dates I could start both weeks and making sure I understood/completed it as ordered. I would give them a call and ask when you're suppose to take it!

There are so any things to be grateful for, as many others have listed, but the one thing that stands out for me is to be positive and always, ALWAYS, remember the good, not so much the bad, in our lives. Yes, we have a disability, but we still have the miracle of life.

I'm grateful for my wonderful family - brothers, sisters, nephews, and nieces... their unconditional ability to care for each other is precious.

and to this forum, I'm grateful to have finally been diagnosed because knowing what to fight is a lot better than not knowing. and overall, I'm doing mentally better under DMT than before. Brain fog is gone and I feel I've regained some of my life.
