I remember the time I could enjoy my full-bath-sessions for hours... ;-)
Now it's different and I need my little helper, but:
With a little bit of colour
And a famous scent indeed
Cup of coffee at my side
Yes I think that's all I need... ;-)

A snapshot of success… Mass Communication Specialist 3rd Class Meagan Christoph was surprised at work one day when assigned on Limited Duty status to Naval Hospital Bremerton by then-Navy Chief of Information Rear Adm. Charles W. Brown phoned to inform her she had also been chosen as 2019 DoD Thomas Jefferson Military Writer of the Year. Christoph has since been medically retired from active duty and was recently diagnosed with multiple sclerosis – thanks to timely Navy Medicine identification of the disease – which is an autoimmune disease that impacts a person’s central nervous system such as the brain, optic nerves, spinal cord. It can’t be cured. But it can be treated, which is exactly what she is doing, with the help of Navy Medicine and civilian healthcare experts (Official Navy photo by Douglas H Stutz, NHB/NMRTC Bremerton public affairs officer).

Thanks for visiting my site. I'm doing a 150 mile charity ride on June 22nd and I would love your support. Please go to my homepage and read about why I'm doing this.
A few more shots from the walk to raise funds to fight Multiple Sclerosis. The M. S. Walk took place in multiple locations, yesterday. I attended the one in Hershey, PA.
A display team of people on scooters organised by a group of people with MS in Dartford. This was part of a rather good Fun Day that the group organised in 2002 with stalls, information and displays. The Red Wheelies performed a few times over the next year or two and also appeared on television.
Having drifted out of focus for a while, the Red Wheelies have been revived and are now based in Kent, doing displays and undertaking treks to raise money for MS. They have a website at www.redwheelies.co.uk/

On April 18, 2010, it really happened. I walked the entire 3.2-mile WalkMS in a dress and high heels. To be honest, I wasn’t sure I could walk the whole way with the shoes, and seriously considered taking them off a couple of times. But I knew that at the end of the Walk, I can take the shoes off and the discomfort would eventually go away. My wife, and everyone else with multiple sclerosis, doesn’t have that luxury. So I just kept walking. One step at a time.
Thank you so much for everyone who sponsored me – your donation is helping to make the National MS Society an even better resource for people with multiple sclerosis. Thank you very much for everyone who walked with me on our team – I’m glad you didn’t mind going so slow. Thank you to everyone who has enthusiastically responded to this whole thing – every message I received really inspired and touched me. Thank you to Lan Yin “Eiko” Tsai for inspiring the look of my ensemble. And most of all, thank you to my wife for encouraging me and understanding the very serious ‘why’ behind this silliness.

Delaware Governor Jack Markell was awarded the National Multiple Sclerosis Society’s 2009 Governor of the Year. Grassroots MS activists from Delaware presented the award at a breakfast in Washington, DC.
The Delaware Chapter of the National MS Society applauded Governor Markell’s recent efforts that helped benefit the more than 1,500 people living with multiple sclerosis in Delaware and their families. Among all states, Governor Markell was selected as the governor whose leadership and dedication to issues most significantly impacted the lives of people with MS. This is the highest honor the Society awards to public officials.
I've just started on a clinical trial for Fingolimod vs. Avonex and this was my little place that I had to be in all day so they could observe me.

With purposeful focus…When Meagan Christoph was a U.S. Navy mass communication specialist assigned On Limited Duty status to Naval Hospital Bremerton, she provided a number of printed articles and accompanying photo coverage on Navy Medicine personnel, procedures and practices.
