Do you ever have those days when you know you have something to do or need to do something but just can’t find the oomph? I’m there. The past few days had been not the best MS days and kind of overly fatigued. I know it will pass, but I want it to pass like yesterday.
My bff aka sister form another mister contacted me to let me know her mama [who I think of as a mom] is not doing well and her Cancer has returned with a vengeance. I’m so numb and cannot imagine what my bff is going through. Mama Jo is one one the finest ladies I have ever known. My mom lived far away and she was like my surrogate mom. She took me in as one of her own. I want to be able to be there for my girl and mama Jo, but this damn MS keeps me immobile. I should be in the car driving out there to be with Liz and flying back with her if needed. I can’t and I feel helpless. No matter what went on in her life she always had a smile for others and a kind word. Please keep them all in your thoughts, prayers, blessings, whatever it is you do. If there ever needed to be a miracle, it should be for her.
it could happen!!
I just hope they can control her pain so she doesn’t suffer at all. She is one the strongest women you will ever meet, a fighter. I love you mama Jo!!
So, ya, it’s been one of those days. Can’t seem to function. Please keep Liz, Will, and Ted in your thoughts, prayers and/or blessings as well. Her children love her so!
Blessings and Hope!

I’m having one of those MS days, too
My period started and that makes my symptoms 100% worse. But then I read the post about your friend’s mom and stopped my pity party. Sometimes it only takes a “slap” to put things back into perspective.
I too, have felt the helplessness associated with not being able to “run and help a friend.” No matter how much everyone understands, it still doesn’t make it right for me. I think that’s it. I’m the one who is missing out on something I’ve always felt good doing.
Wishing you the inner strength to get through this tough time.

I hear ya on the periods, I’m ending mine and it is always worse during this time.
It’s so frustrating not to be able to just go and be there. She knows I’m there in heart, but a real hug would be so much better!!
Thanks Mimi!
