    "Be brave enough to hold on to the 𝗵𝗼𝗽𝗲 that life will be beautiful again." 💙💛𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗕𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗻 𝗗𝗮𝘆💙💛 April 15th, 2015 marked the beginning of a new annual Boston tradition: One Boston Day. Each year, the day serves as an opportunity to celebrate the resiliency, generosity, and strength demonstrated by the people of Boston and those around the world in response to the tragedy of April 15th, 2013. I took this photo on April 15th, 2012... exactly one year before the bombing, and like so many things, Boston, my home, was never the same again. ❤️ This year is different than years prior to the pandemic, but I still find hope in seeing people spreading kindness, even as the pandemic continues. Wearing masks (less so now sadly), getting boosters. staying safe, testing, checking on friends, etc. 💛What's bringing you hope today?

Some seasons of it you will thrive, some you will barely survive. 🌊 Some seasons will be more difficult than others, filled with fear and doubts.

    I used to think that the trials of living with mul I used to think that the trials of living with multiple sclerosis forced me to become brave and strong. Upon reflection, I’ve realized that I was brave all along and my disease has only highlighted my strengths. 🧡 (prompt from @tellherco & @hello_azureantoinette #tellherco1for30 ). 5 days of Iv steroids, running my own Iv meds at home for four days, lost track of how many Iv attempts… my leg is still weak but this hangover is damn strong. Thankfully, so am I 💪🏻

    #ThrowbackThursday Anyone else been putting off r #ThrowbackThursday Anyone else been putting off routine tests from the past two years?? I’ve had more MRI’s then I’d ever care to; but I’m going tonight for the first one since 12/2019. Umm… whoops 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’ve had flares without active lesions showing on my MRI, but I am afraid that I am having a flare up currently (and I’m clearly overdue for some imaging). I’ve been hesitant to admit it… I was hoping that the small skin infection I have was causing my trouble walking, but that’s nearly cleared up (with antibiotics) and my left leg still doesn’t want to cooperate with my right one. 🙄 Rude! I am going to tonight’s mri without attachment to the outcome. “No new lesions” won’t feel like a win for me tonight since I know I’ve had progression since my last scans… but I can’t say I’m hoping they see them either. It’s a weird feeling, ya know? 🤦🏻‍♀️ I may go for steroids either way but my dr and I will discuss it after the results are back. Till then, I’ll just keep breathing 🧡 #thisisms #msawarenessmonth #multiplesclerosis #butyoudontlooksick #invisibledisability #mswarrior #chronicallyill #autoimmuneawarenessmonth

    Discussing your illness, your disability, your cap Discussing your illness, your disability, your capabilities and needs or limitations is not inherently negative. ✨⁣ ⁣ For a long time, I avoided talking about the details of my MS, because I didn't want to make other people uncomfortable or be seen as negative. Well, if my actual life makes you uncomfortable, that's not my problem. 🤷‍♀️⁣ ⁣ And managing my disease and working with my body's needs is actually a positive thing... so it took me a while, but I'm glad I've (mostly) learned this lesson. 🧡⁣ ⁣ Do you ever feel like you need to 'hold back' or not mention anyting related to your illness so you don't seem negative? What's helped you overcome that stigma? ⁣ ⁣ #thisisms #chronicallyill #chronicillness #msawareness #msactivist #multiplesclerosis #butyoudontlooksick #wordstoliveby #tuesdaythoughts⁣ #invisibleillness #spoonie #spoonielife #livingmybestlife #mindsetmatters #selfgrowth #msawarenessmonth #msawarenessweek
    Are you serious about #BreakingBarriers? If you Are you serious about #BreakingBarriers? If you aren’t including BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and disabled women then your version of feminism is upholding inequity instead of improving the world for ALL. #Repost thank you @changecadet for this important reminder ・・・ Feminism centers heterosexual cisgender white women's experience and it was birthed from the suffrage movement. We know that BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and disabled voices tend to be left out of some feminist's conversations. Intersectional "feminism centres the voices of those experiencing overlapping, concurrent forms of oppression in order to understand the depths of the inequalities and the relationships among them in any given context" (UN Women). Take the time to Google intersectional feminism and Kimberlé Crenshaw to learn more this women's history month. Then reflect on your intersectionality. Be uncomfortable. Do the work. #changecadet Image Description: White background with black sans serif font that says: If feminism was designed for BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and disabled women we wouldn't have intersectional feminism.
    #ThrowbackThursday @mssociety #MSActivist style 🧡 I can’t believe this was the Public Policy Conference exactly two years ago. It feels like 3/3/20 was a lifetime ago, doesn’t it?! 🤯 These photos bring up SO many emotions for me, and no, in some ways, I still can’t believe how much the world has changed. But mostly, I am beyond grateful for the experience, the hugs, and the mask free selfies 🧡🤳🏻 And of course, extremely grateful we can continue to use our voices to facilitate change VIRTUALLY!

    It’s understandable to feel helpless and hopeles It’s understandable to feel helpless and hopeless in this world. 💔While I can’t change the countless injustices happening worldwide, I have to continuously remind myself that I CAN use my story to help make life better for many people who are struggling. I’ve learned to accept many new realities since my multiple sclerosis diagnosis six years ago, but I REFUSE to accept the idea that a patient can lose access to the treatment that they and their doctor agree is best for them, because of arbitrary insurance changes. Thank you to @senjohnfkeenan and his team for not only sponsoring a state bill that will ensure continuity of care and medication for people with MS, but also for creating this series of videos highlighting our stories. 🧡 If you’d like to learn more or get involved check out the links in my bio. #MSAwarenessMonth
    Does having a dog make your life better? Raising Does having a dog make your life better? Raising a puppy tornado and living with MS is not easy (ok, it’s exhausting) but the love and joy that Callie brings me is worth it. I am super proud of my Star puppy graduate (who wanted to play with the tassel more then she wanted to wear her graduation hat 😂🎓)! My sweet little Callie has learned so much from @wigglebuttuniversity_ma and thankfully so have I! ⭐️ She’s only been in my life 2.5 months, but Callie has already taught me a LOT and is always reminding me to try and have more fun 🐶🌪❤️
    This was truly one of the hardest parts of learnin This was truly one of the hardest parts of learning to love myself, but also the most impactful. How will you show yourself love today? ❤️ #Repost @mirrorsreflectyou with @make_repost ・・・ Self-love can be hard, but it’s harder when you have people around you constantly bringing you down. I hope you can find it in yourself to love yourself because you deserve it more than anyone else. But start by letting go of those who no longer deserve access to you, let go of those who you thought you would never have to if it means you can find peace and love within. Rooting for you, always. 🤍 @findaisha @mirrorsreflectyou

    Is it ironic that my MS diagnosis drove me to fina Is it ironic that my MS diagnosis drove me to finally learning how to love myself?! I wish it hadn’t taken a life altering diagnosis for me to realize that the most impactful love is the love you have for yourself, but I’m forever grateful and changed by my new perspective. Even on your worst days, 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲. ⁣ ⁣ Remember that, ok? ⁣ ⁣ Especially when you're having a shit day and finding it hard AF to love yourself. ❤Reframe one negative thought (if you can’t turn it into a positive thought yet, simply turn it into a neutral thought) and say it to yourself and say it as many times as you need to. No matter what society, your ex or your family have taught you, you aren’t hard to love. ❤️ #YouareWorthy #YouMatter #SelfloveJourney #DivorcedandDisabled #Mindsetreset #LoveYourselfFirst #PersonalGrowthJourney
