Fearless Friday

I haven’t felt fearless this week.  I feel like I have gone back to where I was before I took the Ampyra and maybe even worse. Or maybe it just seems that way.  On Monday, I told you about the struggle to find financial assistance for the Ampyra I started taking a little over a year ago that was improving a lot of my MS Symptoms.  I also told you about a bad fall I had that day. 

On Wednesday I told you that I was still unable to find financial assistance. 

My symptoms have regressed in the following ways:

• my right foot is dragging more
• it is more difficult to do my ankle and foot exercises
• my right hand is less able to do the occupational therapy exercises I do with therapy putty
• my R hand can hardly hold anything and
• my fatigue has increased probably due to the increased effort it takes to walk and such
• have gone from using the cane rarely do using it all the time
• balance also seems to be compromised. On Monday, I was standing by my car looking at my key five to open the trunk. I fell straight down and scraped my nose all up and I have a fat lip. It’s quite attractive!  

Then I open up my email this morning.  I get daily blog posts from Pure Glory.  Today’s post, as many do, spoke directly to me.  Actually, I think they read my mail before they write each post!!  The post today was God Our Burden Bearer.

The Scripture was from 1 Peter 5:7.  Just what I needed to hear!!

Casting the whole of your cares [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all] on God, for he cares for you affectionately and cares for you watchfully.
