MS and Walking

[DebW]

Karen, so happy to hear about your new mobility. Please post a picture of the walker (bike wheels, yeah!). Good for you to devote your energy to the MS Walk. You are an inspiration.

Karen - didn't know your story, so thanks for sharing! I will be riding in the GMG for the 5th year this year, and am working on the Steering Committee as well.

You are an inpspiration for sure! Good luck on your walk, and I will think of you on my ride!

You gals are the best!!!!!

I cannot thank you enough for all the time you have taken to make a deposite to my cause. Havin only one half of my body workin makes my heart break for those with MS. It is hopeful/probable that in time I will fully recover from this stroke and I see changes everyday. GREAT BIG HUGS go out to Deb, Denise, Jo, Kim and anybody I may have missed. I will find you and hug you to death!!!


thanks a million,
karen

Just keep on keepin on!

Forgive my complete ignorance, but have you thought of/would a trike work for you? I have one of these that I absolutely love (but I don't have mobility issues)

It's awesome what you're doing...You're now over your goal!

You are all the best, and when I can tackle and hug you I will!!

I have what they call a rollator walker. It has saved my life!! Before I was walking with a canadian crutch...that is until I fell and broke the clavicle on my good arm. Now that I have this walker I take no hostages. I intentionally seek out the little ole ladies in the grocery store who terrorized me when my walking was so poor. Plus, the walker keeps me centered and this will help me get back on my bike, (hopefully before June). I cannot ride a trike because my left leg sorta just sits there not knowing how to pedal or move...this will get better <soon>.

Thanks to you all, I am so excited to do something I CAN DO!!!!!
