A Few Milestones I Want to Share with You All

[Sarahsmom46]

I am coming up on a few milestones or anniversaies of sorts that I wanted to share with you all.  

First of all I am hitting my one-month anniversary on Copaxone.  My last injection from the first shipment is tonight then I break out the new shipment.  

The most important anniversary that got me to this point, however, is my one-year anniversay joining MedHelp.  I was fumbling around the net looking for answers to what happened to me May 15th of last year when I found this wonderful, caring, supportive, amazing group of people on the MS Forum.  

You all helped me so much and I am absolutely positive that I wouldn't be where I am now, with a diagnosis and on a DMD one year later, if it weren't for you all.  Who would have ever imagined that people we may never get the opportunity to meet in person can be to integral to our life.

So, one year later I want to thank each and every one of you for your kindness and hope that I can in some way pay it back by helping others who find themselves needing that same kindness.  

Love and hugs to you all.

Thank you so much for sharing that.  For all of us that spend our time here your story means the world!  I have to say that you have been a wonderful friend to this forum from the get-go.  You always share your experiences, are incredibly supportive and all of us count you as a fiend.

You know that this kind of outcome is what I always dream of.

Thank you, right back!

Julie,
You were the second person to welcome me to this community when I began this journey in August.  I will never forget your kindness then and how you continue to show it now.  Your compassion toward all of us shines through all the time.  

Already a month on copaxone?  It doesn't seem possible.  

Happy anniversary - I'm glad you're here.

hugs,
Lulu

You guys are great, truly wonderful people.  

I was trying to remember who the first person was who welcomed me to the forum.  I am pretty sure it was Sunny.  But the second person I know for sure and that was Shell.  I don't know if you all remember your first welcome or second (except Lu who said I was her 3nd :)), but it is nice to know what a difference that welcome makes when we see a new person come one.  

No one believes me when I tell them about all the things I learn from you guys and that we have never even met each other.  Everyone should be so fortunate to find a group where they can not only learn important information about their disease, but also to develop friendships of trust and respect with people who literally live all around the world.  

We are a fortuante group, not fortunate to be dealing with MS or a possible MS diagnosis, but fortunate nevertheless.  

Have a great day ladies and thanks for you thoughtful remarks.  

Hugs to you all,

Julie

I have to second all that's been said to you above.  I'll second what you've said, too.  This is a great place, with great people.  Praying for all y'all.

Love and hugs to you, too,
