MeSsy with Christina Applegate & Jamie-Lynn Sigler

Thanks, Jaime and Christina. Look so forward to MeSsy on Tuesday mornings. Love your honesty. Such a great podcast. Thanks for sharing your stories. I love to hear your perspective. I was diagnosed eight years ago at 51. My symptoms are fatigue, weakness on right leg from hip to ankle, changing gait. I’ve gone from looking cute in my heels to wearing tennis shoes almost everywhere and wondering if I’m the only one who can tell I’m walking “weird”. There have been a few positives since the diagnosis but mostly it’s just a worry about what’s to come.

I needed this show so much when I found it! I am one of those annoying people you refer to that is living almost normally with MS. However, this disease reeks invisible havoc on my body and wellbeing. I can’t run anymore but I can walk. Living in this capitalist world that punishes weakness and the need to rest is a constant struggle, one that has brought me to a breaking point more than a few times. I really love what these women have to say and relate to their struggles but have also made me so grateful that I can still do so many things. I am going to do the things I love while I still can. Thanks for helping me find this perspective of gratitude.

Excellent podcast, heartfelt and much-needed. Thank you.

This episode was everything I feel!! Thank you!
