Tom Mobley Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 Yo, Craig I grew up with my Dad having MS and being in a wheelchair. It's a rough go but not all bad. I think he was just relieved to know the WTH was wrong with him at first, but grew bitter over the years. My prayers go out for you and yours. Keep your own head straight, the rest will work out as the Man upstairs wants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champagne taste beer budget Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 Craig, I just heard this afternoon that a good friend of mine was diagnosed with MS. Now I hear another ones' son is. Not a great day. Be strong bud, say your prayers, and make sure that this summer you take that boy out and show him what a 20 lb Northern is all about! In my prayers.

tillmbil Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 Sorry to hear Craig, I never heard you mention a son, only your daughter. How old would he be?

NOSValves Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 Thanks for all the kind thoughts everyone. I realize that MS is different for every person that has it. The Doctors say he could go on the rest of his life and never experience another incident or ??? It's the ? that drives you nuts. He is currently under going Steroid treatments and has improved. He had lost the feelings and control of both arms and one leg. He let it go because he thought it was just a pinched nerve. We forced him to go to the hospital when he told me he had zero pain or discomfort other then pins and needles. I know all to well pinched nerves cause pain. Bill, My Son is actually my step son but he has never known anyone but me as his father. I raised him from the age of 2. He had his 23 birthday the 15th of this month.

Craig That means he's 3 days younger then my son who turned 23 on the 12th. I'm glad to hear the steriod treatment is helping. It never worked for my wife but I have a friend who hasn't had any symtoms since the steroid treatment he underwent about 5 years ago!

rcarlton Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 Craig, I have worked with many MS patients. I see them when they are at their worst, in the acute hospital setting. It can be tough. The new medications are doing wonders. Hang in there. Most importantly...take care of yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
