Hey Kids.........I'm back.  Hope everyone is stepping high and feeling well.

I finally got back to the beach after my neuro appt.  I have 2 new lesions and that means my Avonex is not working.  Neuro asked me to decide between Rebif and Tysabri........ I chose the Tysabri.  I know, I know....... dancing with the devil.  But I have danced with him before.   Not afraid. 

The beach was tremendous fun.  Sharktooflady and her husband are great down to earth people.  He is the fire chief where they live and she works a couple of days a week primarily fitting people with pressure garments.  She loves to collect fossils, so I arranged a trip to a local quarry.  We all had a great day, got sunburned necks, found some fossils, and were tired beyond measure.  Our next get-together will be in Charleston, South Carolina.  Again for fossil hunting, beer drinking, and generally having a great time..........

Smile....................yktr.

    Please let us know how the Tysabri works. With MS you really know how to take it a day at a time. For me, I had good results with Copaxon, but everyone is a little different. At least a person has a choice now days, as when I first got MS, there was NOTHING but 'trial & error' med's available, so....GOOD LUCK and keep us posted as I am one of many who are praying for you and sending lots of mental good luck, to you AND Doe & your family! Bye for now, Carol
