'The dream' has been scaled down significantly when a chronic illness joint me on my journey. Life goals become a lot harder to achieve and where I'm going to end up is now more important than ever. My quality of life is compromised but I can still dream and I have a goal- I feel …

What do I do?
What is it about not writing that makes me feel like I've failed? I have so much floating about in my head but then getting it all typed up and into words just isn't working at the moment. I know exactly how I'm feeling but I don't have the words to express it. What does …
Me Beyond The Illness
Lately I've written my posts mainly about MS which is good because its a release for me and also I get to speak to people who understand completely and that means so much. I don't want to just be Kim with MS, I am not just that! I am more and I would love to …

Do you tell anyone how you REALLY feel?
Today I spoke to a friend and I realised how unhappy I actually am with a lot in my life. It mainly comes down to feeling alone with this MS. I had a small circle of friends and that has slowly got smaller, I'd say I have 2 friends now. Except they don't look into …
I hate snow days
It's a freezing morning, the grass is white and I feel the cold through my bones. The sun is shining bright, I squint, making the line in my forehead more prominent! This cold alters my feelings, this cold makes me want to stay in my house. Get me out of here, somewhere warm, where the …
