My Life with Multiple Sclerosis 012922

Good Morning, Possums, from the Celebrity Suite of the Wyndemere Condominiums on Turtle Creek. Today is Saturday, January 29.


No birthdays on my calendar today.


And just like that…it’s the weekend.  My memory from yesterday is kind of fuzzy. I went in to get my normal PLEX (plasma exchange) but I was in for so much more.


The port in my chest was no bueno so they did a procedure (I didn’t feel a thing) to clear whatever may be blocking it.  That did not work so, like last week, they did the arm-thing again except this time they used both arms - the left arm was out and the right arm was in.  


I didn’t think about it at the time, but I agree that the stress of the situation wore me out.  As soon as we began, I fell asleep and when I got home, I fell asleep on the couch.  I woke up and made it to bed and woke up around 6am.  That really took a toll me.


However, I do remember seeing all my nurse friends that came by to see me while everything was getting set up:  Christopher, Bridgette, Anthony, Nancy, Mimi, Marty, Laura Leigh - glad they made it by before I passed out.  Those nurses are so nice to me.


Oh the joys and blessings of multiple sclerosis.


It’s going to be a nice day in Dallas today - sunny with a high of 68.  But that’s just a tease before the temps drop.  The low of 28 degrees on Wednesday night with a “wintry mix” in the forecast will have the grocery stores cleaned out and everyone anticipating the power grid failing…….again.  


What’s on your schedule today / this weekend?


Anyhoozle, I hope you all have a wonderful day and whatever you do today and every day, do it with kindness in your heart. The world is full of kind people. If you can’t find one, be one!  And as always:


...wear a mask

...be kind and compassionate to one another

...dance/sing/laugh it out. It might not help but it sure as hell couldn't hurt.


Peace, Love and Blessings to you all.  -AJ
