Back to Blogging, Hopefully

Here's why I haven't posted in two months. I haven't been able to type because my hands and fingers have been numb, and I'm still struggling alittle.:)

A little over two months ago I woke up and my stomach and legs were numb. Within two days I was completely numb from my chest down front and back including my feet and hands. There were days where I thought I was going to lose my mind. It's very hard to walk when your feet are asleep. Since then, I have had blood work, a nerve conduction test, a neck scan, a spinal tap and a brain scan. The diagnosis? It looks like MS (multiple sclerosis). Both my neck scan and spinal tap show MS, however, since my brain scan was normal (yay, no tumor) we have to wait to see if I have another attack or a brain scan shows something in 6 months.

Today my numbness is gone except for my hands and my left arm. Although, my right hand does feel like it's almost back to normal. :)

So this is some of what has been happening with our family.
