The Journey Continues
Thanks for joining me!
Good company in a journey makes the way seem shorter.

I’ve been trying to get this blog going for ages. I keep an ideas log where I have been trying out all the things I might write about. The main thing is that I don’t want this to be a depressing place that people don’t want to visit.
I had a blog years ago which I kept very lighthearted. I kept my MS out of it. It was all very new to me then, and I was trying to come to terms with being chronically ill. I did not want to be defined by it.
Things have obviously moved on now. I am in a wheelchair. My journey along the road towards living my best life is ongoing. I want to use my experiences to show that it is possible and to raise awareness of disability issues that many people may not be aware of.
I hope you will join me on the road and I hope you will enjoy the ride!

Hello,
I think it is a very courageous and great initiative that you are taking. These are topics that need to be covered more and the more they will be discussed, the more aware people will be and through time, I hope more and more people will feel like it is their duty to be very aware of these topics. Thank you so much for sharing.

It’s a pity that it’s so long since you wreote. I found that for me, it was useful to keep a diary, almost, of where I was. I suppose it is a bit different because I could reasonably expect (and have achieved) improvement.
One of my friends on here also has MS, over in Switzerland. https://angloswiss-chronicles.com/

I have been writing, but in my journal. I am beginning to put something together to start again, but after we lost our grandson aged 7 to cancer, I was paralysed. I couldn’t write because all I could think of was him and it blocked me. Nothing seemed important any more except him and comforting my distraught daughter as best I could. It’s still raw, he only died in June, and I wrote a short post about it. The problem is the longer you leave it the harder it is to start again. Life just intervenes and there’s nothing you can do.
Thanks for the link to your friend. Have a good day.

That must be difficult to get your head around.

Got it in one! That’s the problem
