Hi.

Yeah… I hate writing this.

If you know me, you know I’d rather make a joke, post something ridiculous, and pretend everything’s fine. But MS doesn’t really care about my coping strategy.

This isn’t just migraines and “bad leg” days. It’s my body clocking out without notice while real-life bills keep showing up like, “We don’t care, sir.”

Turns out, you can’t Venmo the electric company fatigue. I checked.

Lately it’s been things like needing to fix my electric wheelchair and repairing a broken front window… on top of regular life expenses. Not glamorous. Not dramatic. Just real. Cheryl and Benjamin work hard on trying to keep us afloat, but it’s tough to sit by and be helpless.

I’m trying to adjust to not being able to work the way I used to. That part has been the hardest hit… mentally and financially.

If you’ve asked how to help, this is one way.

Only if you can.

Only if it doesn’t put you in a bind.

No pressure. No guilt.

If all you can give is a share, a comment, or good energy… that matters just as much.

Still blessed.

Still fighting.

Just being honest.
