About Me
I am an MS Support Group leader in St. Augustine, Florida. I have only been dx'd with MS since 2004 but the 1st symptoms occurred when I was a senior in high school (class of '87). I am married and have two sons, one with Sensory Integration issues. Needless to say, our household never has a dull moment! I am very much into natural healing practices and have been tapering my RX gradually from what was once quite a long list of drugs to no RX at all. I have only been free of RX completely since May 7, 2009, so we will see how things go. I am trying a whole new approach to fighting.
