My Progress

I'm walking 50km this May to leave MS behind

My Progress

50.20km

My Target

50km

Support my challenge to leave MS behind!

I’m taking part in The May 50K challenge this May to raise funds for life-changing research into multiple sclerosis!

MS strikes young people in the prime of their lives. The average age of diagnosis is only 30 years old, and there is no known cure.

Please make a donation and support my challenge to leave MS where it belongs, behind us.

Your donation will support research into the prevention, treatment and finding a cure for multiple sclerosis to change lives.

Thank you!

MY IMPACT TO LEAVE MS BEHIND OVER 2 YEARS

My Updates

Dinner date

Managed some more kms heading to dinner and was amazed to walk past the MSQld office, these amazing people have been a lifeline via many phone calls!! I’m going to pop in tomorrow whilst Glen is in surgery! Glen got his usual favourite pizza at an incredible Italian place!!

Brisbane river

So lovely walking with my hubby to his cardiac appts and able to smash out some serious kms!! Wesley Hospital, Advara and Qscan all via the river where we saw lots of cool stuff!!

Brandy took me out

As I walk slowly enjoying the fading sun I thought I’d let Brandy off the lead on a nice big soft grassy area, she did zoomies and then ran full speed at me!! I fatally took a step and she took my feet out from under me!! Thankfully the soft grass saved me from injury!! Lol

Infusion day

Wow the crap gap was bad this round, but made it through a very long day- couldn’t do a dedicated walk but used my step count to get todays kms!! 17 infusions done! Image from 16th!

Infusion day

Every 28 days I get a dose of immunotherapy to suppress my immune system from attacking my nervous system!! It hopefully will stop or at least slow my MS progression down!!

Early start

A year on post diagnosis and I am learning how to live with my new very weird body!! It really does have a mind of its own!! But I’m smiling more, laughing at my weird symptoms and just getting on with life!! Finally got a cooling vest to help with my Uhtoffs and wow that is life changing!! Wish I had done earlier!!
