PeopleWithMS

My name is Jack Halley and I live north of Chicago and have R-R MS. Back at the outset I didn't have too many symptoms but ended up taking ACTH from an infusion pump in the hospital for a week or so once a year at the beginning. Later on when Solumedrol came became the med of choice, went in and received it IV at the hospital. Since starting Avonex I haven't had an exacerbation since 5/1/98. My 34 year old lovely and energetic wife that I was with for 15 years and married for ten passed away and left a void in my life. I try to not think about it and just move forward as we all have to do with MS. I workout with weights still and stay busy so not much time for reflection. Some personal notes............ I was a captain in the Army, have 6 years of college, Scuba diver, Private pilots license etc. Just to give a look into my private life......Hugs to all and pray for a cure
