I have not wrote a post in a week...tisk, tisk.
BUT ALOT HAS HAPPENED!
Laurie is doing better with the diet now and we are seeing some RESULTS people! Her feet have always been swollen to the point where she could not fit into her shoes.
After sticking to the "Minding My Mitochondria" diet for 3 weeks, both her feet have reduced in swelling and look like normal healthy feet!
Can you believe that!? (picture to come!)
Secondly...
Because of the debilitating symptoms of MS like stiffness, and loss of muscle control, it can be hard to make it to the bathroom sometimes. "Having to go" can pop out of nowhere and cause problems.
Since my mom has cut coffee out of her daily routine, she has not had a single accident. She also practices a deep breathing, tai-chi technique that has helped with her control.
It's the little steps that will turn into BIG steps to beat this stupid disease!
On another note...I would like to welcome my new little cousin into the world :)
We love you Joey Rivard! Your Aunty Laurie can't wait to run around with you! (adding that to our goal list!)
Till tomorrow, Keep S'Myelin everyone.
P.S.
Myelin is the protective coating around your nerves. MS strips that stuff off...
So keep S'MYELIN for goodness sakes! #eatwell
