Mother of 3 with MS who lives in the middle of nowhere with very little support. I really need people who understand how hard it is to lose weight that I can chat with. Also I would love an accountability parter or two.

    I'm completely understand. I've had MS for over 20 years. I now live in an isolated place and have little to no suppoirt. My online community is what keeps me going some days. I'm always available to support a fellow MSer.

    Email me or call me if ever need a friend to chat with.

    Hi, I'm a rehab RN who lives out in the country and find it hard to connect with folks as well. I work regularly with MS patients and understand you have good days and bad days. It must be difficult when your mind wants what your body won't always deliver :-( Let me know if I can help!

    Feel free to add me :) But I must warn, I only keep people on the friends list if they're active, chat/post comments everyone once in a while...I keep it small and close knit so I can get to know people better :)
