Dedicated to my beautiful Aunt Dee, whom I call my sister because she truly is. Battling with MS, she has more courage than anyone I know. I love her dearly.
She is my sanity, the voice of reason
When life sends me spiraling down
She is there, to catch me, to lift me up
When I can’t seem to find myself
She reminds me how far I’ve come
Never questioning who or what I am
Always by my side, always on my side
Even through her own battles
She is my rock, my soul sister, my friend
Letting me know I am stronger than ever
Yes, I am stronger, because of her

Oh no way!! The rain, snow, cold, etc, all cripplers. It’s in the high 70’s today but tomorrow, back down to 50’s. Ridiculous!

Tell her to try using CBD for her MS. My wife and i take it for osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. It is not like marijuana as it is non-psychocactive. CBD Plus is about the best brand, like the 750ml 2oz bottle; we only take half a serving at a time.

‘She is my sanity’ if we could get this same transaction – this same relationship – to spread its wings into the wider social network, pull its strings, I guess, then sanity and rationale would be more common, nice tribute, nice phrase, nice poem,
