I have posted a freelance article on my blogspot I did on a beautiful young girl who has been diagnosed with a form of MS if any of you would like to read it.

And for any of you who are dealing with this disease in your family I just want you to know you have my sincere prayers and thoughts.

Thanks for the prayers Kathy. My sister was diagnosed with MS about 12 years ago. Our aunt has had it since the 1960's. It is a horrible disease that is very difficult to treat since it is so different for every one.

Whenever anyone asks my sister how she is doing, she simply says, "MS sucks". That pretty much sums it up.

it is an awful disease....my mother had it for about 20 years. she died 3 years ago; please don't think me heartless, but we actually felt relief for her when she died. it is a really sad and terrible way to live the end of your days. my heart goes out to anyone connected to this disease.

As i sit here almost in tears I keep thinking, that girl is ME. I haven't rcvd a definitive diagnosis yet, but I emphathize with all her symptoms. Since 1998 I have just been told its "fibromyalgia" but I am not so sure. thank you for posting this.
