| Please help me Thank Choleandj & Chattiesmom I just don?t where to begin?.. Do I begin with WOW!!! Or THANK YOU! I just don?t know but??? WOW & THANK YOU so very much!!! There are not words to say express the gratitude that we feel, for Jodi(Choleandj) & Cindy(Chattiesmom). I contacted Jodie(Choleandj) & asked her if she could make a dress for Annie so that she could match our shirts for the MS Walk this coming Sunday. My brother in law has MS & we walk in the MS Walk. Jodi(Choleandj) contacted Cindy(chattiesmom) to see if she could do the embroidery work & WOW, MY OH MY look at what these two wonderful ladies did for us!!!! They actually matched our team shirts!!! It took 2 wonderful ladies in 2 totally different states to make this wonderful dress so that Annie could be a part of the team & support Beszhak?s Buddies. I still can not believe it!! We have showed people the dress and they can not believe it. You are both extra, extra special people and we thank you so much. I would like to close off with quote from Richard. ? I am 1 of 400,000 Americans that has MS. I have MS, it does not have me!!? The pictures are of my hubby, Richard & me, and then of course Annie modeling her Beszhak's Buddies desingner dress. Thank you again Jodi & Cindy.

| Jodi, that dress is georgeous! Now I'm getting anxious for the "special outfit" you're making for Archie. Been trying not to think about it.... Soon after that, I'll start working on the float - well, maybe I'll wait till the end of the summer for that! My "kidz" are in a parade each year and I like to take my time and make it special!

What Is Multiple Sclerosis? MS is thought to be an autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system (CNS). The CNS consists of the brain, spinal cord, and the optic nerves. Surrounding and protecting the nerve fibers of the CNS is a fatty tissue called myelin, which helps nerve fibers conduct electrical impulses. In MS, myelin is lost in multiple areas, leaving scar tissue called sclerosis. These damaged areas are also known as plaques or lesions. Sometimes the nerve fiber itself is damaged or broken. Myelin not only protects nerve fibers, but makes their job possible. When myelin or the nerve fiber is destroyed or damaged, the ability of the nerves to conduct electrical impulses to and from the brain is disrupted, and this produces the various symptoms of MS. People with MS can expect one of four clinical courses of disease, each of which might be mild, moderate, or severe. Relapsing-Remitting Characteristics: People with this type of MS experience clearly defined flare-ups (also called relapses, attacks, or exacerbations). These are episodes of acute worsening of neurologic function. They are followed by partial or complete recovery periods (remissions) free of disease progression. Frequency: Most common form of MS at time of initial diagnosis. Approximately 85%. Primary-Progressive Characteristics: People with this type of MS experience a slow but nearly continuous worsening of their disease from the onset, with no distinct relapses or remissions. However, there are variations in rates of progression over time, occasional plateaus, and temporary minor improvements. Frequency: Relatively rare. Approximately 10%. Secondary-Progressive Characteristics: People with this type of MS experience an initial period of relapsing-remitting MS, followed by a steadily worsening disease course with or without occasional flare-ups, minor recoveries (remissions), or plateaus. Frequency: 50% of people with relapsing-remitting MS developed this form of the disease within 10 years of their initial diagnosis, before introduction of the "disease-modifying" drugs. Long-term data are not yet available to demonstrate if this is significantly delayed by treatment. Progressive-Relapsing Characteristics: People with this type of MS experience a steadily worsening disease from the onset but also have clear acute relapses (attacks or exacerbations), with or without recovery. In contrast to relapsing-remitting MS, the periods between relapses are characterized by continuing disease progression. Frequency: Relatively rare. Approximately 5%. ************************************************** ******** MS is a chronic, unpredictable neurological disease that affects the central nervous system. MS is not contagious and is not directly inherited. Most people with MS have a normal or near-normal life expectancy. The majority of people with MS do not become severely disabled. There are now FDA-approved medications that have been shown to "modify" or slow down the underlying course of MS. The above is from the brochure Just the Facts
