Re: [TMIC] Anyone Remember Jude?
Jude; I am meeting you for the first time. I live in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. Diagnosed with demyelinating disease¹ in early January, had second attack 6 weeks later, confirming that it was MS. Then in April I got TM and have been dealing with that ever since. I read your emails with empathy. I pray for you all and hope things become more positive in your lives, especially in your financial lives. Contact me directly any time at this email, or on Facebook Best regards, Dalton Garis On 26/5/10 3:05 PM, Jude Hoops heyjude48...@aol.com wrote: Hello Friends-Old and New, I have missed you all so much!

RE: [TMIC] forgot to say that I'm home
Glad to hear you're back! It's amazing that you travelled so far! I'm sorry about the pneumonia bout though and I pray all is well now. I myself have completed three legs of my journey. I'm off to Tobago to do some more scuba diving and some deep sea fishing out in the atlantic ocean. It's been exhilirating thus far, but the after effects are a bit too painful sometimes, but the good kind.the kind that reminds you that you're alive. I have to try to remember to push myself to my personal limit and no further, but I guess when the adrenaline is pumping nothinng really matters and TM disappears if even only for a few minutes. I know your trip was worth it and I know you pushed yourself too, so good for you! Congratulations! There is life after TM!

Janice From: Barbara Alma Sent: Friday, May 28, 2010 6:35 PM To: tmic-list@eskimo.com Subject: [TMIC] forgot to say that I'm home I'm sorry that I forgot to tell you all that I arrived safely home late on Friday, May 21st. We managed to put 7608 miles on our van and enjoyed practically the entire trip. It really was a great trip, and was almost without incident. With regard to health problems: I fared really well, other than a bout of pneumonia and a night in the hospital in Colorado. This sounds bad, but I have gotten pneumonia at home many times. It was worse getting it on the road, as it has taken me so much longer to recuperate than usual, so that's the worse part. It also made the last week and a half of our trip a bummer, without much fun. No gambling in Vegas since I couldn't handle the smoky casinos, but that probably saved me some money. We managed to see 2 shows though. I had about 7 days out of 46 of laying in bed, resting my back overall. Not too bad, but they were spread out. We managed to see family and friends that we hadn't seen in several years, did things that we didn't know existed, and went to states that we had planned on visiting, but didn't really know when we'd do it. All this because our god-daughter planned her wedding. So, right after this, I'm going to call her and thank her for planning her wedding and for us having the opportunity to push my inner thoughts into planning this wonderful trip. She really didn't have any awareness of this when she planned it, but my mind started to wander, I only wondered if I could handle it. I wholehearted recommend to anyone who really wants to do any kind of a journey, whether it's a days drive or whatever, to give yourself the chance. We stopped often, whenever I felt that I needed to, sometimes every hour, sometimes in 2 hours, but I did it. We've done short trips in the past, and I did much better this time as it allowed for more relaxation since we had more time.

Re: [TMIC] forgot to say that I'm home: reactions
Scuba diving; Wow. I just took a bicycle to a grocery store half a mile away to buy some bread, and was both thrilled to be able to do it and finished for the day. I¹m very happy that others have beat this thing. Dalton On 29/5/10 4:47 PM, j ra rumc...@hotmail.com wrote: Glad to hear you're back! It's amazing that you travelled so far!

Re: [TMIC] forgot to say that I'm home
Glad you're home safely! TM has made us change our way of thinking .we have to 'ready' ourselves to go and then rest (collapse) when we get back homebut it's worth it!! My biggest problem is that I think I can do whatever I've always done and then reality hits when I poop out early! Didn't mean to ramble.sorry that you had your bout with pneumonia, but glad you were able to travel. Your mileage makes my back hurt!! ;-) Hugs, jan From: Barbara Alma balmat...@aol.com To: tmic-list@eskimo.com Sent: Fri, May 28, 2010 6:35:01 PM Subject: [TMIC] forgot to say that I'm home I'm sorry that I forgot to tell you all that I arrived safely home late on Friday, May 21st.

Re: [TMIC] Anyone Remember Jude?
Hey Jude, It's so good to see you back, and Yes we have missed you. You mentioned MS - have you now been diagnosed with that also? Don't feel bad about the picture. I've never posted one either.
