This is so incredibly humbling, Judy! To have a person we respect so much focus on us in one of her poems is leaving us speechless. We are so honored that our book also includes some of your most inspirational and motivational haiku-style poems to guide the themes of each section. Your writing and friendship are such a blessing to us!

Like Dan and Jennifer, I too am from Michigan and have the pleasure to count Dan and Jennifer as friends! I too have MS and that is what brought us together but it is their great, passionate drive to help others that has made me so happy to call them friend!!

And now I have one more thing to thank them for, they suggested you blog! I am a fan already!

Judy, I am wondering if I can share some of your poems and/or thoughts with others with MS and those w/o MS. I think you put a wonderful spin on this journey that MS has put us on without even asking our permission to do so.

Thanks again to Dan and Jennifer for steering me to your blog! And thank you for the words you put to our struggles and our accomplishments as we struggle.
