About Me: I am 37 years-old, separated after being married for 12 and a halg years with two boys, ages 8 and 6. I was an avid sports nut, especially hockey and football, before the MS kicked in. I have stopped playing all sports for the fear of any rough contact could bring an on onset. I haven't run since the onset of MS. I have a feeling that I have headed towards the separation now to avoid the divorce once my wife finishes her degree in two years. My MS has led me down a path were I am not the same person I was when I met my wife. Taking one day at a time.

Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
Relapsing-remitting MS

I was originally diagnosed in 6/95. Doctors thought I had a stroke, but after an MRI and a spinal tap, the MS ruling came. I have left optic nerve damage, which eye doctors never picked up on until the fall of 1996. The best my vision can be corrected in my left eye is 20/40. I didn't have another syptom until a flare-up in 10/03.
