Emeraude and I went to deliver a little tray of treats to Vickie, a small thank you for her having spent her day at telehealth appointments with me. Well, most of her day, she wasn’t always in telehealth appointments, sometimes she was in the emerg watching me get pain meds or driving me back [Read more]
It was an incredibly long day and, after all the craziness, Emeraude was not up to playing soccer. She asked to stay home and I obliged agreeing that she had done enough for one day (and had way more patience than any 4 year old should need). This of course did not mean that she was [Read more]
Saturday, we begun working on yet another piñata! Emeraude is a HUGE fan of piñatas, and any occasion will do – we made our 1st (I think) at Christmas for her Nursery School and then another at Easter. After much debate over the past few weeks, Emeraude finally decided that this one would [Read more]
It has been another very long day. I had such severe pain as I came near my 4 hr injection times it was hard to deal with (mostly tireing and frustrating that I had to go to the hospital as I now know I have other options that should be made available to me and [Read more]

Pipe Cleaner Fun This afternoon, when Emeraude would normally take her nap, we settled on my bed with a mountain of pipe cleaners and worked on the craft I had found from MarthaStewart.com the other day. The instructions were very clear, definitely a fine motor development activity, and tons [Read more]
Emeraude & I transplanted some of our seedlings today. Though they all need to be done, to keep it enjoyable we only do as much as each of us is up to. We transplanted 3 squares (with 9 compartments each with a seed or two planted originally for the most part) of radishes and a [Read more]
It has been a long, complicated frustrated week but as usual, my children kept me focused and on getting back on my feet no matter what. I have had alot of difficulty sleeping and so the blog has suffered. I hope to catch up on posting the major events of the week this weekend but [Read more]
Emeraude’s first soccer games this week were a success J. She took part in her very first organized, team sport Tuesday & Thursday as a member of Team Canada in the Primary League.

Posting photos for now, will try and fill in the story later as time permits (and pain levels… having a worse than usual day for pain). [Read more]
Though I have to be aware of how much physical activity I do, I have come to realize that in regards to living with multiple sclerosis it does not seem to generally make a difference as to fatigue or pain levels afterwards. Having said that, keep in mind that no two people diagnosed with multiple [Read more]

Once I was in, although it hurt at first (very painful pins and needles, much more pronouced and sharper then the kind of pins & needles you might feel when your foot falls asleep) and my skin felt very uncomfortable, the heat went deep to make the pain back off somewhat or as they describe it in [Read more]
Emeraude then put the millipede gently into the ‘bug trap’ as Lloyd explained to her that they needed to add some natural elements to the cage... [Read more]
Notre jardinage continue de progresser tellement bien, Emeraude en est très fière (moi aussi d’abord). Les concombres fleurit un peu plus à tous les jours (des belles grosses fleures jaunes)… Je ne me rappelle plus si les concombres vont pousser ou il y a des fleures comme les haricots on [Read more]
