| About | My name is April and I am trying my best to remain as physically active as I possibly can. I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2010 (a process that began in 2008). In 2019, my MS progressed to Secondary Progressive. I still work full time; yet, I do have mobility challenges. I walk with a cane and an AFO, for foot drop, on the left. My right side is my stiff side and my left side is very weak. My ultimate goal is to be able to walk without my assistive devices. I am currently in physical therapy that will be ending Friday. I am excited to begin a new program that will help me maintain and improve physical function and mobility. And, I look forward to interacting with people who share stories that are similar to my own. |
