So I hit the ladies at church up today for sponsorship for my walk, I figured "why not?" I asked them to at least pray for me as I do the walk because half way threw each year I am never certain that I will finish it. Having completely numb feet is not a blessing.
At all.
Walking on numb feet is like imagining walking on your feet after they have been shot full of nova cane. Sounds yucky huh?
And dangerous.
My Mom pledged me right before the cruise so I have lots of ground to cover if I am going to make any dent in my goal....funny how the people I know do not ever want to give towards a cure for this illness but they will give towards March of Dimes or other worthy causes, even though they don't know anyone who has used the services of March of Dimes.
I have used the MS Lifelines services more than once and thus feel like as long as I CAN walk, I will walk. Please consider pledging me here ~~~~> link.
I dream in color, write poetry, talk about God, parent kids and finally wonder about it all

Hi Sweetie,
ReplyDeleteI talked to Aunt Sandy this morning, Tracey cannot walk without a cane anymore. Most of the time she is in a wheel chair, her MS is very agressive. My friend Jack lost his wife last week to MS. She was only 50 years old and had MS for 30 years.
So you walk on my dear daughter. Walk for Tracey because she can't. Walk for Linda because she never will again, at least not in her physical body.
I'm grateful to God that you can still walk and I hope all those that read this go to your MS webpage and donates to a VERY worthy cause.
I love you and I am so very proud of you!
Love,
Mom
It's an honor to pledge for you, Christina, and for such a good cause!

MS Walk fundraising always seems odd when you actually live with MS every hour of the day, not just one big fundraising day. ... Our MS Walk (well in our case I PUSH) is this Sunday.
