Pins and Needles, and Needles
There are many different DMTs (Disease Modifying Therapies) for Multiple Sclerosis. I am currently on one that I inject 3 times a week, much better than the daily version I was previously on.

I love you Red
We don’t celebrate much of anything in a traditional fashion. Valentines Day is no different. I guess we’re cool like that?
