No, I am not talking about a video game. Last week, after weeks of asking, I let my oldest "push the button" and give me my shot in my leg. Talk about being proud! She had asked to give me the shot when I was taking my Avonex. I told her that would be awhile but when I had to switch to Rebif, with...

    Laughing     I think that is awesome , getting your daughter's involved was a good decision .. as you said .. I think if I had children , even if they were that young, I would do the same .. so they see it is not so scary ...

     

    As they age , they will also have learned empathy , I hope you don't mind me saying this , but , God bless you ... you are a unique and kind person   ... and you are always in my thoughts and prayers ..

     

    Okay, that got me teary eyed , life is good and so they are happy watery eyes , giggle .. you take care , and I will continue to look for your posts .. hope you have a wonderful Mothers' Day ... agserra

    Adrian,

     

    Thanks for the comment. I had a nice Mothers Day. Got to spend it with the kids. My husband was gone for a good chumk of the day training for the Bike-MS next weekend. so the girls and I watched a movie - Eloise at the Plaza and they painted. The older one, my shot girl, sewed a vest for me and painted a skirt that she taped together. So very cute.

     

    I will look forward to more posts from you and how your doctors visit went.

    Thanks for your post Kristen.  I suspect readers might be torn as to how they would handle your situation.  But I bet there are plenty of members living with MS who know exactly how you feel ot maybe even disagree completely.  Either way, i think we all woudl love to hear their thoughts.

     

    So post your thoughts here - join us and tell us what you think. 

     

    All the best, sue (moderator)
