Challenge 35

I have been going to my local MS Therapy Centre for 22 years, this year they are celebrating their 35th Birthday. Due to the Pandemic we have not been able to have a 35th Birthday Fundraiser and party, so like many other charities the Chilterns MS Centre have gone online and are holding a virtual Challange called Challenge 35, individuals have been asked to invent their own challenge but it must include the number 35. I decided to roll 35 miles in 35 different places. As my walks/rolls have gone on I have clocked up more then 35 miles and have had quite a few adventures along the way! As I write this I have completed 27 walks so have just 7 more to go.

It’s all change

It’s been a long time since I last posted, back in 2017 I had a major relapse and it’s only been in the last few months that I have felt anywhere near normal! I have decided not to concentrate on accesible toilets but to write about the in’s and out’s of my daily life living with MS. I hope people will find it interesting if not amusing. Almost a year ago my Social Worker arranged for me to have a Personal Assistant (PA) four times a week so that my husband could go back out to work and I had someone with me for eight hours a day. Unfortunately following my relapse I have lost the use of my hands and arms so I am not safe to be left alone, to look at me you wouldn’t know, in fact my friends tell me I’m looking really well! It’s my care company that suggested I brought this Blog back to life.  So that’s my background, let see how it goes over the next few weeks. Below is a picture of me when one of my PAs took me out for the day.
