We're having a major event here in this building this weekend. Every now and then this kind of thing happens. A woman who has been here many years (she moved in shortly before I did, 17 years ago) has had a stroke and is now in another facility with more care, probably a nursing home. So her apartment with most of her belongings is standing open this weekend as her helper presides over an "open house" where residents can wander in and help themselves to this unfortunate woman's possessions.

She has stiff person syndrome, a rare and very crippling disorder. She's been pretty much confined to bed all of this time, going out occasionally on a gurney to appointments. She had a laptop she was using and was ordering groceries from Amazon. The helper has been with her for more than 17 years. Such people--who last that long--are few and far between.

That's what's new around here. I'm still perking along and hope others are as well.

MS creates some real challenges to keep on moving. It helps to inspire each other on how to find ways to move.

Did you stretch in your bed, swing your arms, roll side to side today? Or perhaps you did housework? Or exercised in a pool? Tracked your count of steps? Chased your cat around the home? Pushed the wheelchair wheels with your arms at the store? Post them here and we can support and egg each other on.

REMEMBER: This is a keep on moving thread, not keep on exercising! Any moving is important it doesn't have to be exercise! Even Science proves that.
I'm still managing to work the new PT exercises into each day. The world will have to wait in breathless anticipation a little longer for my July step count but I'm getting around to it.]]> Multiple Sclerosis agate https://www.braintalkforums.org/forum/neurological-disorders-and-injury/multiple-sclerosis/274216-august-keep-on-moving
