Tired of trying to be positive

I was going along sort of ok

then it seemed to go plop

my hip went so my knee went so now im limited again to how much I can walk

and those shakes I was getting have come back I tried to carry a cup of coffee

and by time I got to the table it was half full, keep getting Twitches in face

Doctor is sending me to the Neurologist he is suspecting a Demyelination

So that should be fun !

and I guess im just So Tired 

But I forgot that he'd Bond with me Wow did he ever "Yoshi" sleeps in the bed with us under my arm he Talks

is an amazing cat

 he gets on with my 2 dogs but another cat cant even be outside he goes crazy he's a part Siamese all Black cat

 when he was a baby I put him in the cat litter and moved his little hands to scratch but I think I did it too far as Now he actually Throws Litter Everywhere he has a Big Litter box (one of those plastic packing Crates) and it takes a Full Bag of litter at a go But he still Tosses Litter all over the floor. But its amazing how they are Family members,

Hope you get to Daughters Graduation sometimes I think the expectation of these events can trigger flares.

Thanks Carole hope your going ok 

On another note I too have a kitty, that I rescued. Her name is Bandit. She seems to know when I am down,or hurting cause she climbs right up on my chest and snuggles.  Take care.

My current cat looks beautiful but is a toal grouch- Oscar! Shame but thats life sometimes. He'll tolerate me to stroke him occassionally.

You're the same age as me, I'll be 54 next birthday.

Feel like I'm struggling on at the moment too.

So thoughts go out to you, at least animals keep us sane.

best wishes, golitho

Thanks wow it's weird how many of us are in same age bracket when I was first diagnosed I was the youngy at 24 but now I seem to be in same age as others (if that makes scene)

I guess missing the dog show just effected me more as I was in a downer I think I've realized I can't show my dogs cos I can't get around the ring or sit in sun for day "sun really effects me"

But im sort of ok with that now

Yes I can't wait to get to the Rheumy its the end of January  and the Neurologist is mid January

I've started keeping a journal cos of these new issues

we often say how weird it will be when Yoshi (our cat ) goes to cat afterworld even tonight he did one of his amazing things, he was biting his front foot I went to look at it he pulled away and moved to end of bed, I said to him "come here let me see your foot" and no kidding he walked over and held his foot out to me ! I then used nail clippers and clipped the offending nail.
