After being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis I looked at my body in a whole new light,I needed to nourish, and strengthen it, to try to be as healthy as possible.
I was pretty sick at the time, and had hit rock bottom. My body was slowly shutting down, and the medications were only making me worse. I couldn't take it any longer, I had to find a better way.
So I completely changed my diet. I slowly started to come out of my fog, my liver was now working correctly, had a lot more strength in my legs, and I had lost almost 50 lbs! I was feeling good but I knew it was time for more
I joined the YMCA to hopefully get a little exercise in, regain some mobility, lessen my fatigue. What I got instead was so much more. I have never felt more motivated. The caring and support I got from everyone both workers and goers was unreal. I was able to push myself further then ever, and for the first time in years I felt strong!
The Y teaches the importance of health and nutrition in such a positive way, working together to make a better future for all especially to the kids. living in a world full of disease, it's more important then ever to be healthy, and learn the building blocks for a healthy future.
Please help me raise money for the Monroe Family YMCA Annual Support Campaign.
