Listen to the Music

I heard from the Myelin Repair Foundation shortly after I blogged about them the other day. They were very gracious, and pleased to have been mentioned. Fot the MS'ers, I am sorry I haven't yet provided more information about their work. As I learn more I will provide updates.

Now, about my blog: Sometimes it turns out that you don't really know where you are going until you get there. While I never intended (and still don't) for my blog to have anything to due with music, it is inevitable that there will be some sprinkled in here and there, simply because music has been an important part of my life.

While the stuff I have shared so far has been somewhat ancient, they have been selections that I think are important for the MS community, not necessarily my music friends or my friends in general. I assure you I listen to plenty of today's music as well and as the opportunity arises I will probably share that as well.

I am off to continue what I am always doing: taking care of my needs, keeping positive, and staying as well as I can mentally and physically. Oh, and I will probably be listening to music.

About My Blog

This is my personal blog. It details my own personal experiences with MS, as well as other ramblings about my life. I am NOT a medical professional and cannot offer advice or opinions of a medical nature. If you need medical atention, please contact a physician or, in emergencies, your nearest hospital emergency room. MS has many faces, and every single patient has his or her own unique experiences and challenges.

The links I provide are things I think may be of interest to those with MS or their friends and family for further research, and does not constitute an endorsement.

Walk MS 2011 Underway!

The WalkMS 2011 campaign is underway! I will be participating as a Walk Captain for the Anderson Area Taking Strides team at the WalkMS event for the East Central Indiana group. The Walk will be held on April 16, 2011 at Worthen Arena on the campus of Ball State University in Muncie.

We would love to have your support. Please join us for the walk! You may participate in several ways, including walking with us, raising funds, donating in any number of ways. The proceeds from the walk help support MS patients and their families in many ways, including local support groups, many programs through local and state chapters of the NMSS, and direct assistance programs for those in financial need.

MS can be financially devastating, and there are many patients and families in need. You may donate right now by clicking here. Thank you! Hope to see you there!
