Regardless of your political viewpoint, it was good to see the words MS on the cover of ABC News today.  I believe increasing awareness of MS is what is going to increase fundraising support which will in turn increase research which will in turn find a cure.  Every mention of MS in the media only helps build that awareness. 

Its been a tough week filled with tough discussions about Mom, trying to get a handle on what is facing us and trying to do everything we can.  I am trying to be more optimistic.  To hold on to hope because in the end that is all we have.  Deep down no matter how down I feel about what is going on around me with Mom there is always a spec of hope. 

Today I am hopeful.
