my stumbles through life with ms
Recently, I was re-acquainted with a very old friend – grief. He is far from a stranger to me; I’ve lost many people in my short 27 years. Enough that I’ve developed some excellent coping mechanisms. That being said, losing someone never really gets easier. The initial shock doesn’t hit…
This Friday, as much as I hate to, I must quote Lil Wayne in saying, “Bitch, I’m feelin’ brand new.” I haven’t posted in a couple weeks, so here’s a short recap of why – I jumped right into the first half of my classes, experienced several more health stumbles,…
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 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…
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…

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…
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…
As I’m a little obsessed with my pets, I thought I’d start this weekend off with a bang and talk about fur babies – Everyone who knows me outside of the world wide web knows I’m in love with my little zoo, and are definitely rolling their eyes at this…
Sorry for the ridiculous wait guys, life decided part 2 could wait! Part 2 of OMS-ish is going to cover steps 4-7 in the book. Number 4, the Mind-Body connection, was something I really didn’t contemplate before last year. I’d tried meditation before, but like most people, thought I couldn’t…
