I'm a sad Mother today...

I have just been told by my 34 year old daughter, that she has MS.  She will be going in for her Solumedrol treatment tomorrow, for 3 days, for her Optic Neuritis.  They found 4 lesions in her brain and will be doing more investigative work in this next week.  Her NeuroOpthamologist said she she's that there is a paleness in the disc behind her eye and said Optic Neuritis.  My daughter did not tell her that I had MS, until after the doctor told my daughter they suspect MS in her.

This is crushing to me as a mother.  As it would be to any of you.

I will be absent from the Forum starting tomorrow morning, as I am driving down to be with my daughter, as she takes her infusions and just try to be some comfort to her.  We have decided that we are going to do alot of crying together, then put on our thinking caps, to plot the next course of action.

If any of you believe in prayer, my daughter could sure use them.  Thanks to all of you, in advance.

Weeping Momma,
Heather

Heather, I'm SO sorry to read this news. All of us here on the forum will join with me in wishing her the best possible outcome. Have you seen T-Lynn's recent posts about her own 14 year old girl? MS is almost a done deal for her too. Maybe you two can talk.

When Cheryl gets past the shock of things, please invite her to join us here. As you already know, she'll be more than welcome.

Sending love and hugs,
ess
