    "Laugh and the world laughs with you". It is so great that you can still appreciate this because the rest of that quotation does you no good at all. I so admire your "spunk".

    Poor dog! It must be frustrating for you. My sister was an artist and developed MS after the birth of her second child. I know how difficult it was for her. I hope you are able to sew for a long, long time.

    From a fellow MS quilter I say "been there: done that!''. Everything from table legs to hubby's foot! Wouldn't it be nice to know where your feet are???????? Good sewing and good health to you. Linda

    I too sew and quilt with MS. My "helpers" (3 cats) love it when I sew because whatever I am working on is always so "cozy" and needs to be tried out. The foot pedal is not their choice of bed but laying right behind the machine and watching the needle is. Please keep the passion for your creativity because it will help to keep the ability!

    Thanks for that laugh. I can relate to your story as somedays my legs work well and somedays not so much. I am glad to see I'm in such good company on here! (Another MS'er).

    I don't have MS but have lost feeling in my feet and hands from chemo so I can relate. Keep going--I do. Some days I want to stick my tongue out at my machune and it even has a button I can push to get it to sew. That does help till I need to make a fast stop. Oh, great is life. Sure is. Keep smiling.
