I saw my MS nurse yesterday and discussed my recent relapse. She pointed out that it was what is known as a 'sensory relapse' something I wasn't aware of.
This time of MS setback is actually one of the milder kinds but it is considered one of the most psychologically damaging. The loss of all sensation in a limb can lead to depression and (definitely in my case) low level panic. I had a few very scary days but now I know what was happening I am back to the positive, upbeat version of me and by God! I missed him.
I haven't been writing all that much because of the problems with my relapse but after I done what I have to do today I'm going to get my head back in it and what I have to do is a pleasure! My cousin, Rob Moran, is also a published writer. He had a short story called 'The Magical Storyteller' published and is now working on a full-length version.
I have been lucky enough to read the first part and am doing the initial proof-read for him as he prepares the second part. I'm not just saying this because he is family but it is amazing! I fully expect to see this on the shelves of the children's department of book shops and libraries in a year or two! I wish I could write children's literature - it's a special skill...
