Hi, My name is Kathie. I live in Maine, USA. I was DX with RRms in July of 2006. I am married with two grown adult children. I'm 46 years old.
When I was working, I was a med nurse in a locked down Alzheimer's/dementia unit for 7 years, to veterans. I loved my job and had to give it up in September 2006.
Prior to MS slowing me down I used to mountain climb and hike, bike, canoe, snowshoe. I still love the outdoors very much, but am limited as to what I can do now. I love photography, reading, music, genealogy, and people in general. If I can help someone somehow and make a difference, that makes me happy.
I also have Trigeminal Neuralgia but it is under control now. Some days are not easy. There are good days and bad days. My MS effects me cognitively, and my balance, spatial judgment is out of whack (which sometimes makes me feel kind of dizzy).
I get through my days with a sense of humor, understanding, and compassion for others. Also online chatting with my MS friends.
Hugs,
Kathie

MSers Meeting MSers Today Citrine and I finally met after becoming online MSchat friends first. We both live in Maine and we only live 10 minutes apart. We met when Citrine offered to drive me to the bus station to pick up my son. While we waited for my sons' bus to arrive, we went and had a nice breakfast out. We had a good time. Citrine is such a sweetie!!! I am sending you a picture of us that was taken today, our first meeting. Hugs, Kathie
