How's everyone doing with the colder weather?

I actually feel good with colder temps. The heat & humidity is not a friend to my MS.

Life has been so busy lately but I am still here & I am still responding to DM's.

Stay tuned for some updates!

Today I pick myself up and I start again. When one door closes, another opens!

New writing is coming soon!!!

My process... I do notes on my phone or in a journal, then write it then type it, edit a few times then finally I submit it! ✍🏼

My husband (@pjschropp.bsky.social) & I have a classic car so we've been busy on the weekends with car cruises which are so fun but so exhausting. I swear I'm still recovering from last weekend. But we will be taking a break for a few weeks tho!

It's annoying isn't it?!? Have you found anything to help at least a little? 🧡

Yes fatigue is a struggle for sure!

Have you found anything that helps with fatigue or vision? I learned that reading everyday has been a little bit of a physical therapy for my eyes... Just a little though. 🧡

I personally haven't dealt with that (yet) but it sounds awful. Gentle hugs to you!

Exactly! 'We survive.' We adapt and keep going. 🧡

My MS is not ok with the heat today! Outside is just being rude! 🥵

What is the most annoying symptom of your chronic illness?

Mine is vision issues. One minute I'm fine then all of a sudden things are blurry. To be clear this is not all the time. It's very random. #MS life.

Two days ago we got flooded... Again! Luckily we've done a lot of work around the house to help protect us. Btw this is just a small stream which turns into not so small. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I turned 40 on July 3 & I have decided that this will be MY decade! My 20s & 30s were not so nice to me so now I'm choosing to take MY life back as I navigate through these chronic illnesses. 💪🏼

My husband & I officially had central AC installed in our house. This is crazy to me because I never had real AC. We chose a good time since the heat this year is brutal.

Growing up, my idea of AC was a box fan in a window. 🤣

The emotional weight of the disease is like watching your life in fast forward & mourning all the things you'll miss. It's a complicated, exhausting, confusing jumble of emotions. But don't feel defeated! Fight through it. 💪🏼

#MS #multiplescleosis #endo #endometriosis #chronicillness

I hope everyone is surviving this heat wave! Stay cool & stay hydrated y'all!

Remember to check in on the elderly & chronically ill.

Try to stay cool! This is brutal. 🥵

A heat wave is knocking on the door here in western PA & I'm not looking forward to it. Yes I want a break from rain but I'm not ready for the 90 degree days! 🥵

Today is World MS Day!

Gentle hugs to my fellow warriors!

Wow small world, I'm in Beaver county too. I actually taught photography at ccbc years ago.

That is great to hear about Dems in your community, I live in an area that is quite red however we noticed a lot more signs for Dems this past election than usual.

I just noticed on your page that you are in PA. I am in western PA... Happy to "meet" a fellow Pennsylvanian on here. 🙂

Thank you. I actually used to teach photography at a local community college. I moved on from the teaching many years long before my health took a turn. But I'm staying hopeful to maybe make a comeback with my camera one day! 📷

Thank you. Photography has been my life. It was very hard to make the decision to close my studio. I always liked the feeling of holding my camera myself. I'm hopeful to one day make things work again but my MS tremors are so unpredictable. 📷

So sorry to hear this. It's so hard to give up what we love.

Never apologize for being YOU! Embrace yourself. Love yourself. They can accept it or not. 🙂

Have you given up anything in your life because of your health?

I gave up photography. I closed my studio a few years ago & it makes me sad but it's hard with tremors. Maybe one day I'll make it work again. 🤷🏼‍♀️

That would be nice if we had AC but our window unit has not been put in yet. Last week it was snowing. Lol.
