Its almost 3am & I'm realizing that the shock while brushing my teeth this evening is definitely a full on #TN attack. Ugh! 😢

Five inches of snow & 15degrees never stopped us from having fun. @pjschropp.bsky.social is out shoveling for neighbors while me & the dog are running around playing. ❄️

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.

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!

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. 💪🏼

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

Remember to check in on the elderly & chronically ill.

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! 🥵

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. 🤷🏼‍♀️

My MS was not prepared for it to be 84 degrees today. I do better in cooler weather.

I am claustrophobic and I hate MRIs so I decided to write about it! 🧡

MRIs and Claustrophobia and Sedatives, Oh My!
For one woman with MS, taking the drug lorazepam before an MRI helps quiet the anxiety she feels when enclosed in a small space.

This is what led to my diagnosis. I knew it was MS but I didn't want to believe it. 🧡
