Default Yeah! Good news! No MS! No MS! No MS!

Friends....

My wife and I got good news from the Dr late yesterday afternoon. There was no sign of MS. Her neck pain is being caused by a bulging disc and arthritis, which is bad enough, but at least it is not life threatening.

I want to thank all of you here for your kind thoughts and prayers. JP's is truely a family. Your words of encouragement and thoughts meant so very much. Thanks to each and every one of you. It's great to know that, even though we've never met, you guys and gals are always here. I love you all!!!

Ray

I'm certainly glad that it's not MS, but I hate that she's in so much pain that it could be diagnosed as something so severe. I hope she gets pain free soon!

What's MS?

And given that arthritis is an illness that currently has no cure and only mediocre treatment, I'm not sure the news is really that satisfactory.
