Today has been a good day. I woke up to nice cool breeze, cloudy and a chance of rain.  I was able to get out of bed without being so stiff today. What a blessing! Little things mean a lot around here.  I continue to do stretching and it really helps with muscle spasms and stiffness.  Even in my neck and back it is helping. I even worked around the house without little problems.  I don't think I am having any side effects from the gilenya now.  I still have the symptoms of ms and probably will until there is a cure.  But for now the gilenya may slow the progress of this crazy disease.
Paul and I had an experience of a lifetime today. We were asked by my neurologist to have a photo shoot with him.  We accepted and spent an hour with photographers and Dr. Hughes. We were not sure what to expect. Then the crew came in started putting makeup on us and explaining what was happening.  The photos and videos will be used by the hospital, ms clinic, and websites for marketing. May not sound like a big deal, but he is "The MS Specialist of the Midwest." Hope the photos turn out okay since our three kids work for the hospital!
 Tomorrow I will see an orthopedic doctor for my hurt and swollen arm. I am anxious to get it over with and ready to ease the pain.
Today I am thanking God for a good day.
