I've just realised I don't know how to write any more... I don't even know how to hold a pen! I can still read and type and that isn't a problem but I can't remember how to even hold a pen or which end to use or how to get the words onto paper! Is this an MS symptom or is it just 'cos I've not had to write anything since leaving hospital?
THIS IS BEAUTIFUL -- PLEASE WATCH!!!! If you have a minute, please watch the following video clip it is a beautiful story of Johnny, the grocery store bagger. It is very short, but it will remind you of why and how we make an impact in what we do. You may even want to share it with others & I hope you will. Make Their Day, too!

It's only taken 3 months but I've finally taken a huge step forward!! What wonderful news eh? I'm soooo happy to have taken this (what feels like to me) huge step forward!

2. ARE YOUR DRUG COSTS GOING UP?
ARE YOUR DRUG COSTS GOING UP?
Many people with Medicare are paying more for expensive medications,
and out-of-pocket costs could be on the rise for those with other
types
of insurance, as well.
According to Avalere Health, a company that researches healthcare
issues, most Medicare health plans now have created separate
categories for
the priciest drugs.
Because the categories are in addition to the more familiar three
tier
co-pay system, where people pay set costs for generic, preferred and
non-preferred drugs, they are called Tier 4. Some plans also have a
Tier
5.
People on the plans who take Tier 4 or 5 drugs are charged a
percentage
of their cost. Some specialty medications may cost more than $600 a
month as a result, according to Avalere Health.
The changes are hitting people with chronic diseases, including MS,
according to Avalere Health.
"Health plans are trying to balance competing demands of access to
medications and low cost, but the result is that patients with
serious
illnesses are paying more," said its president, Dan Mendelson, in a
statement Tuesday.
The change already has moved beyond Medicare. Avalere Health
estimates
about 10 percent of commercial health care plans also now require
people to pay a percentage for some of the costliest drugs.
The New York Times reported on the trend this week, finding some
already are faced with thousands of dollars in drug costs due to the
change.
WE ALSO HAVE ADDED A NEW SECTION ON OUR WEBSITE - MEDS & RESOURCES -
HELPFUL INFORMATION ON FINANCIAL AID PROGRAMS TO HELP WITH YOUR
MEDICATION COSTS.....
