I immediately thought about my 11-year old grandson who called me last night out-of-the-blue (he never calls explicitly for me) to ask if I'd go to the movies with him tomorrow. It had nothing to do with MS and THAT is what I am most thankful for . . . the simple pleasures of life. BTW of course I said "Yes!" (I'm sure he intends to buy my ticket but I will probably not let him buy the popcorn & drinks.)

Life is NOT about MS: as much as it tries to be.

I, too, am hesitating about this bloghop question. I've not written a response yet and am trying to decided if I will yet participate...

In more ways than one. I think if we lived closer we'd be having cups of coffee together almost every day. Or walking together. Slowly.

Thanks for your comments, Lisa. They made me feel wonderful.

Hugs~
Cathy

Upon reading the first sentence or two, I thought, "Well, my MS is probably the best gift." Then I continued reading and YOU said the very same thing. Hugs to you. Lovely post, my fellow MS-er. 😀
