Hi, Kenneth!
My name is Riley. I'm 7 years old. I don't have school today! I have a day off. Do you? I really hope you feel better. I hurt my eye last week, and I have to take drops. But I know you feel a lot worse and I'm sorry about that.
What's your favorite food? Mine's watermelon. Do you like strawberries? My mom says your mom takes good care of you and that's a good deal.
Have you ever played chess? I'm at the chess team at school. It's really cool. You should try it, if you don't play. One time I went to another state, Indiana, to play. I tied one game and lost one game. But I lost to fifth grader when I was in Kindergarten, so my coach was very proud of me. The game lasted over one hour.
I hope you feel well, Kenneth. I will pray for you.
Love, Riley (I'm typing by myself. Mom's got me covered.)

Ms. Nancy (that's what all the neighborhood kids call me)
just bumping back up so nobody misses it.
I'm from Ohio,I live in a little town and its main income is farming.
I'm 41 and have had MS since I was 33.I know to you thats sounds old.
I have 4 children,my oldest 21 lives with her boyfriend. my 18 year old daughter is in the Navy and is studying electrical nuclear enginearing---she's vision impaired--so all things are possible.
I have a 16 year old son who plays football,wrestling and runs track,he broke his neck at the age of 2 and never thought he would walk again.Plus he has osgood slaughter disease and his elbows and knees are always in pain.But he enjoys his sports.
My youngest is a girl she's 12,she runs cross country and track and wants to be a jornalist when she grows up.
For me I have grown up in ohio and have lived in North carolina and Michigan----Now your gonna have to get a map out to see where we are all from.
I enjoy cooking,my flower gardens,my loveable dog and just relaxing with family.
MS at 9 must be rough,but I'm sure your a real strong strapping young man.We all have limitations and I wish you well and luck with all your indeavors.I'm sure you'll accomplish all that you want to acheive.With MS it just makes us stronger willed.
Nice meeting you.
Hi Kenneth!
My name is Pat and I am almost 45 years old. I have 4 children. I have 2 boys that are 15 and 3. I have 2 girls that are about your age. They are 8 and 10 years old.
I live in California. It is usually very sunny here. I live close to the ocean. I can drive down to the ocean and drive to the mountains or the desert in the same day!
I am sorry that you are not feeling well. I am also not feeling well and my doctors are trying to figure out if I have MS. I hope and pray that the doctors from the United States can help your doctors make you feel better soon.
We would like to hear from you if you feel like writing us a note. I wish you the best!
Pat :)
