As COVID-19 continues to dominate headlines around the world, it asks for some new and updated pages in Ireland, Multiple Sclerosis & Me. Because I have been occupied by raising a mad puppy and trying to get rid of new MS symptoms, IMSM has suffered under these actions. Needless to say, I will try to get back into the swing of writing, and to start I wanted to bundle my previous posts about COVID-19 as some could have been written yesterday instead of at the very start of the pandemic.
Subjects still hurt, like asking for respect for healthcare professionals and trying to instill warnings that this pandemic would not be over by the end of 2021 when these are still an issue to this very day.
Alas… here we are. Here we still are.
