Thank you, I have a cat a verifiable approved companion pet by a medical professional. It’s great snuggling up to him and just having him around. ❤

Getting a divorce, preparing for the upcoming soon move, my MS with new lesions, and the treatments... both meds and MSCS PT.. . I don't need to sing you a song...

when my anxiety exceeds my medication i use an online metronome, usually around 30-35 to slow clear my head and slow my heart down. youtube is crazy but can be an excellent resource.
