15 Years After

I have heard it said (by a doctor, a young resident at a research hospital) that Secondary Progressive MS is usually what happens with relapsing remitting MS after 15 years.

A few years ago, I had a wonderful, vivid dream wherein I was going to travel to an island nation  for burial when I passed in the year 2015.

One of those graphics where it shows a plane graphically flying from one destination to another with a series of dots behind it was the next step in the dream. My spirit felt very excited and happy about this. Next thing I remember, is being there in my earthen grave and feeling like the earth lovingly cradle my body.

We are 10 months into 2015 now, and I am still here. Though, it seems that I lose a little bit of function every single day almost. And in that way, I feel like I am dying. The dream was a premonition. It was what I knew all along, seeing myself decline rapidly.  Growing ever closer to that stage 10 on the EDSS.

I have BIOTIN  on its way to me in the mail, and am looking into clinical trials of stem cells in in MS, and progressive MS.  I ruled out a few trials because of The EDSS limit of 6.5 (Hi am 8).

 Hope is not lost.
