It has been 29 days since I was fortunate enough to have the Liberation Procedure. In many ways my life is infinitely better. I walk freely and fast; I look forward to taking my dogs for a walk rather than looking at it as a chore. I have energy. That is the biggest change. Exhaustion is not my natural state anymore. I used to fight the tiredness so much; it was such a big part of my life. Weekends were absolutely devoted to rest and recuperation. I usually needed to find some way to get energy injected into me by massage or acupuncture. Now, I am truly free to do the things I love and want to do.
I have more patience than I used to have. My moods are less intense and my crabbiness much easier to hold at bay. Grace is the true judge of these and she feels the difference. Life is not smooth by any means for me but I can tolerate much more. I have always been defensive and irritable and I tend toward these much less. It is so pleasurable to move around and I have the energy to do it.
I still want so much more. A big part is just getting back in shape. It is just so nice to see forward progress instead of decline. Having MS is hard. It is hard physically but it has been harder mentally for me. I think humans have an innate need to want progress and improvement. I want to see MS patients all over the world (2.1 million I believe)have a chance to go forward. To re-myelinate. Can this be done?
Why not?
