About Me
I've been living with MS for 33 Yrs since the adult onset in 1975. Although my MS is secondary-progressive & has caused some permanent deficits; I remain as active as possible. I work part time & drive my car using hand controls. My physical activities include swimming, adaptive skiing, lifting weight's, & riding a stationary bike. I hope to soon include adaptive horseback riding. I'm an MS Walk Committee member. I walked 1/2 mile last Yr using my walker. I'm a newly diagnosed MS Peer Support Councelor. I have a wonderful wife Cheryl & am a grandpa.
