Sarah gave a talk about MS on the Hill

The Society for the Advancement of Women’s Health Research, along with the National MS Society, hosted a primer on MS on Capitol Hill in June 25. Sarah spoke about the experience of having MS, and used some props to give volunteers the feeling of dropfoot, tingling in the hands, optic neuritis, and spasticity in the chest.

One volunteer had to button her shirt while wearing rubber gloves, getting a mild shock on her hands, wearing weights on her wrists, and wearing vaseline-covered glasses.

The panelists included Dr. Heidi Creighton, who is Sarah’s neurologist and sort of a rock star personality among DC-area MS patients. She is standing next to Sarah in this photo.

Ooh! Pretty Pictures!

Sarah was on the cover of a recent edition of MS Insider magazine, and the photographers were kind enough to share all the photos of their session with us.  Here are a few.

The Landsman guys rustled us out of the house in the early morning while the mist was still in the air and the light was all golden to get these shots.  A few others in the set showed up on 2007’s Christmas cards, which is why they might look kind of familiar…

That’s 4 of us, but only 3.5 heads of hair

Happy New Year to everyone.  Sarah and I and the girls are doing well.  I would like to use this site to keep people up to date on our various doings, so check back from time to time, OK?  

Gee, I wonder how those Keitts are doing?
