About Me
Hi all, I am a glass half full kind of person. That hasn't changed anyway. I was diagnosed by my neurologist on August 16th, 2007. Since that day life has had many changes. I went from a full time job, to reduced hours, to unemployed because of disability. I was officially released from work on January10,2008. They were pretty cool at work and I miss the people that I worked with. I just could not commit to certain hours for 5 days a week. I now either am in a manual wheelchair or with a walker. I hope to get a definite diagnosis on the particular type of MS soon.
