I Love Rollercoasters

I have always loved rollercoasters. If there is a rollercoaster in an amusement park, I'm there! I grew up within walking distance of a small amusement park with an amazing wooden coaster. If you have never experienced a wooden coaster, please find a park with one. New coasters are smooth and wonderful, but a wooden coaster rattles you back and forth and up and down during all the hills.

So I equate multiple sclerosis with a ride on a coaster. There are ups and downs (sometimes large ups and downs) and some and sometimes the ride is particularly bumpy. I never know what will be but no matter which way I go, I know it will be scary and quite a ride.

Unlike a good coaster, the ride isn't usually fun. But can we do it? You bet we can. We are strong and we are MS warriors!

This is Parker Beach. He owned the park until his retirement. Behind him is the crazy wooden Rollercoaster. This is Parker Beach. He owned the park until his retirement. Behind him is the crazy wooden Rollercoaster.
