March is MS Awareness Month!
Catina is a friend of mine. We met at the MS Self-help Group that I have been lucky enough to belong to and serve as the leader for about the past 10 years. She is our youngest member. I now struggle with that last sentence.
You see Catina is now in a "nursing home". She has been there for about 3 years and no longer is able to walk, talk, eat (except through a permanent tube in her stomach). So, she doesn't attend our meeting but I try to keep her in other's thoughts too so she is not forgotten. I have come to love Catina more and more! She was always our most positive member. She never complained about what life had dealt her at such a young age.
When Catina first joined our group she was one of the most positive person I have ever known! Always had a smile and never a bad word to say about anyone or anything!
Somehow I know she still has a very positive attitude but it is impossible for her to convey that attitude trapped within her body like it is.
So, for people like Catina I ask you to donate when asked by family or friends. Somewhere, around one of these corners, there is a cure but research is not cheap!
Thanks for listening! And if you don't know anyone walking, riding, hanging out in the mud to raise money I would love to take your money. ;-)
This is my my participant page where you can donate for a cure for Multiple Sclerosis. thanks
