A little humor at the grocery store

Post by BooBear »

My husband and I were grocery shopping yesterday when I remembered an item and walked to get it out of one of the coolers in the refrigerated section. At that moment, I had a sharp, electrical shock feeling in my left leg (which happens rarely, but it has happened) that caused my walk to look odd, to say the least.

My husband called over to me and said, "Honey, walk right!"

I responded with "I'm trying!" and explained that I was getting that electrical shock sensation with every step.

He smiled at me and said, "You know, we are getting that fixed very soon and THANK GOD because you look like you are doing the Irish jig over there."

There, ladies and gents, is my hubby summed up. :)

We live on a very small city block that I normally cant make it around without dragging my right leg after half way. I took our 6 month old bull dog for a walk the other day for the first time. I found that if I let her pull on the leash the waY she likes I made it all the way around the block. And with little leg dragging. I think I am going to let my Neuro know of my findings and see if he wants to do a clinical trial :lol:

boobear and bad copy, i like the humor. pretty witty there hard copy. sadly, your neuro. would probably bring up that there have been no clinical trials to support your story. with all the crazy things that actually goes on with this ms when these reality shows come on t.v. i often think--buddy, you want a reality show--follow me around for awhile. you will get a taste of reality.

Forget your neuro and let an IR know. :)
