And we're back...

I'm over in the corner, minding my business. There are multiple people in here receiving infusions, etc. It's good that they have curtains for privacy. And televisions throughout. 

Walk MS 2017 - Hamilton, NJ

Since I'm working in Jersey now, I figured I'd participate in the walk up here as all. I was solo but it was still fun.

Walk MS 2017 - Tallahassee

This year's theme: Superfriends Fighting Against MS The team, once again, rallied together in support. And we won big! Best Team Tent. High Roller. Best Team Shirt! Oh and yes, I'm 6 months pregnant. #TeamTasha #OnMyNerves  

Well, I'm pregnant

Is that good or bad? It's a great thing, to bring a life into the world. But how does MS and the medication effect the pregnancy. "They say" the cure to MS is pregnancy. That women, while pregnant have less MS symptoms. They may relapse harder, 3 months postpartum but for those 9 months, they're good. That's what they say. It's the medication that the issue.

This is because Gilenya may harm the unborn baby if used during pregnancy. If you use Gilenya during pregnancy, your child could be at higher risk of birth defects, in particular those affecting the heart, kidneys, bones and muscles. You must use effective contraception while taking Gilenya

I had a visit with Maternal Fetal Medicine at Capital Health Medical Center - Hopewell. I've also started seeing the Obstetrician at Lawrence OB & Associates to see my through this pregnancy. We'll begin doing genetics tests and have the conversations necessary. But, we're having a baby!

MS Walk 2016 - Baton Rouge

In keeping the same energy, I decided to participate in the MS Walk in Baton Rouge too. Because, why not? So many of my friends still live there. I was able to get shirts made for them as well. Thanks to those that were able to come out, participate and contribute.  #TeamTasha #OnMyNerves  

Walk MS 2016 - Tallahassee

This year's walk has been a blast to plan. From the shirt design to the tent design. We're enjoying ourselves. My Pacman Theme, "Chomping Away AT MS" won use Best Team Shirt. AND, we raised enough money to become a High Roller!
