Two weeks ago Ben went back to the his neurologist for a follow up appointment.
To make a very long story short ............
Ben was diagnosed with CIS. http://www.nationalmssociety.org/about-multiple-sclerosis/what-we-know-about-ms/diagnosing-ms/cis/index.aspx
He is in the category of High Risk due to the fact that there are multiple lesions on his brain.
We are currently researching two medications he needs to choose between to start as soon as possible. Both are shots that he will need to give himself. Expensive.
Knowing that Ben will develop MS in the future as turned our worlds upside down. We are completely re-evaluating everything that we had planned out. This changes everything.
We decided to rent a place as oppose to buying. Having our future be so unknown makes it very difficult to lock into a 30 year mortgage.
We found a beautiful place in Wauwatosa. We start moving in a few weeks. We are very excited to have a three bedroom place with a natural fireplace. The little things make us very happy. :)
This weekend starts the season of what we affectionately refer to as "500 Christmas's". Saturday is our first of 5 Christmas parties.
Tis the Season.
