I’ve said it many times and many ways before. Multiple Sclerosis sucks and secondary progressive MS sucks even more.

Had The Curmudgeon been a normal healthy person he probably would not have lost his balance on the back porch steps while dodging a carpenter bee.

He is still in the hospital. He still has a chest tube in and he is improving a little at a time.

Today we found him more alert and his color was a lot better.

Tomorrow he’ll have to be happy with a phone call instead of a visit, I really need to get some stuff done here at home.

If I had a couple of willing slaves …er volunteers to come and help move some furniture and electronics around while he’s not here. I’d love to surprise him by having his chair and TV moved to where he’ll be happier.
