The MS Walk in Bismarck is this weekend and I couldn't be more excited. Friends and family from around the 4 state area are coming to walk with me and help fight for a cure for MS. What could be better? If you would like to sponsor me, you can click on this link below:

Here is a poem that my sister found by a lady that has MS. She SO nails the feeling of MS, I just had to post it.

MS Attack
by Sylvia Brown

MS makes it's attack on me
Whack after whack, oh where can I flee?
My body feels weak, my movements so slow,
I duck and I dive to avoid the next blow,
It beats me up. I'm black and blue,
Nine rounds with Mike Tyson, how many more can I do?
My body is numb, I start to shake,
Please Rescue me, I need a break!
But no one hears my desperate plea,
So I have to search inside of me,
I reach inside, what can I find?
A Will to Live and Strength of Mind,
I am so determined to Survive,
To Live my Life, to Stay Alive,
So this torture I must withstand,
With Faith I'll find a helping hand,
Deep inside myself I find a Strength,
To help me swim that extra length,
My stubbornness drives me from within,
To continue my search and Never Give In,
So I ride the storm. The skies WILL clear,
I KNOW that sunshine will appear,
And my sinking feet in the Quick-Sand,
Will find themselves on Solid Ground,
and Gingerly I'll get back on my feet,
For I will Never Accept defeat!

Please do your part and help find a cure for MS!!!
