I’ve tried writing this a couple times, but admitting when I’m not living up to my own standards is hard. Right now I’m pondering the decision I’ve made to give up the ccma program I’ve been invested in since February. To be honest, the first couple of weeks should have been a dead giveaway that… Continue reading Giving In
The 2019 Indianapolis Walk MS Event was huge. I don’t mean just space wise, although they took up quite a bit of White River Park. I mean the mood was huge. I woke up feeling flarey – I know, bummer, after feeling so good the past couple of days – but got on the road… Continue reading Walk MS Indianapolis 2019
“Nothing in the world is worth having or worth doing unless it means effort, pain, difficulty… I have never in my life envied a human being who led an easy life. I have envied a great many people who led difficult lives and led them well.” Theodore Roosevelt April 8th, 2018, was one hell of… Continue reading Rebirth
If you follow me on Instagram, you know I’ve had a lot going on, but didn’t want this week to pass before I brought up a couple of things. First up are the ignorant comments from Dr. Phil. He had the audacity to say 100 out of 100 care giving relationships fail. Really. I’ll only… Continue reading All These Feelings
The disabled population is the world’s largest minority of which anyone can become a part of at any time. For all of us who woke up one day and discovered we’d switched ships during the night, how true is this? Friday marked the beginning of March, and with it, the start of MS Awareness Month.… Continue reading Dealing With an Invisible Illness… When You Aren’t Invisible
It’s been a really great week around here, despite getting the news about my dumb heart tests + monitor. I get that the tests aren’t necessarily stupid, ok, I just detest having to sport a monitor and carry a phone for a month, not to mention spending my Monday at the hospital getting said tests… Continue reading A Kinda Fab Friday
The holidays just about whooped me to the point that I’m just now feeling fully recovered, y’all. It was relatively low key, and very very enjoyable. But, I was around A LOT of people I typically am not, and i also work in retail, so I was absolutely covered in germs. Nothing a little r&r… Continue reading Juggling Multiple Diagnoses
Thanks for being patient you guys – between deleting MULTIPLE posts I had drafted and my hectic schedule – I haven’t had a chance to post in a few. What pisses me off most is simple human error led to a couple of really well written, great posts I think had a lot of great… Continue reading Pre-Birthday Feelings
I’m Bri, and I’m thriving with RRMS. Stumble Pup is my way of trying to find my way in the new community I find myself a part of, and to provide a little soft space to land for those struggling with MS or mental health issues. Basics first; I was formally diagnosed with RRMS in… Continue reading A Little Bit More
I realize I haven’t done one of these in a freaking month and I have a million excuses, but none that really trump the importance of this for me. Not necessarily blogging, but writing in general. Connecting with others in the auto-immune realm is also really important…without Instagram and my local support group I’d be… Continue reading Friday Feelings, 4
