It has been a few days since I have posted here as sewing has been put on hold for a bit. I have been trying to digest the news that our daughter Janel, has been diagnosed with MS. A disease I have only heard about but have no knowledge about it.
I thank my many friends for sending links to web sites where I can learn more. It is a dreadful disease, with no known cause and no known cure.
This has caused a big change in our family. Janel is not one to sit around and feel sorry for herself. She intends to live life to the max!!
We are learning about things like cooling vests, the color orange and the Nancy Davis foundation. This is a link to her story. I do hope, that given a chance you will be able to donate to the foundation, but more then that I ask for your prayers.
Nonie, I can only say that she is in my prayers daily. I really do think a positive attitude helps with any illness. I'm sure it's not always easy, but with God's help and her loving family she will do just fine.
ReplyDeleteVery sorry to hear that your daughter has MS. I have a family member and several friends with the same disease. Have you been given the link for Dr. Zamboni in Italy? His findings seem full of hope.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad she is not taking this news lying down. You are a strong family and we know that prayer works. We will continue to pray for Janel.
ReplyDeleteOh I'm so sorry! This is definitely hard news to hear, I'm sure. It sounds like she's a real fighter. That's a good thing. Prayers for her!
ReplyDeleteMyNorth, no actually no one has sent that link so I googled it. What great news if it all works out.
ReplyDeleteThank you
On our national news last night this item was aired:

A cure must surely be around the corner.
I am so sorry to learn of Janel's diagnosis. I have several close friends with MS, and all continue to live very full and meaningful lives. May that be true for your daughter, too.
