Hello friends --Hope you and yours are doing well. We just had a snow storm last night so I am walking on air. I LOVE it. I happens so infrequently here (southern Virginia) and we have no equipment to deal with it!!  Translation: my daughter's school is closed and my husband's home from work!! YAY!  Everything's melting and things will be back to normal tomorrow - in fact, the roads are perfect today - but it's BEAUTIFUL - and my favorite people are with me. It's a good day!Let's get to the FN6P shall we??1.  I published a brand new podcast this morning on the FUMS Podcast Show. Have you heard of the #PushUp4MS challenge? It's like the Ice Bucket Challenge a few years ago - but for MS!!  We're trying to get it to go viral so PLEASE - listen to the short (18 minute) podcast, then share it EVERYWHERE!!  Thanks. Here's the link: #PushUp4MS2.  Going down the dietary path to look for solutions. We can all do better with our eating habits, right? MS: Dietary interventions may ‘calm down the immune system’3.  Do you think people can change? This is a story of a murderer - who ended up helping a man with #MS on death row. I'm really interested in your perspective. Join us on the FUMS Facebook page and share your thoughts. Here's the story: Death To One Who Saved Lives?4.  Did you know this is Random Acts of Kindness Week?? Yeah - me neither!! Friend of the pod Dr. Gretchen Hawley has some GREAT ideas on how to get your random acts on! Read the post: Random Acts of Kindness Ideas5.  We can all use a little help in finding savings wherever they are to be found - am I right??? Here's some help with prescription costs: A Consumer's Guide to Drug Discounts6.  From Selma Blair's Instagram comes a very high recommendation for a new book: selmablairVerified"I needed this. Yesterday, my most admired friend on Instagram had her book launch for #sufferstrongbook. Katherine and Jay Wolf wrote a truly powerful, profound and different book than anything I have read. It is warm and happy. And deep. They have survived by redefining everything! In the aftermath of a massive stroke endured by Katherine after the birth of their first son. Hope. Hope heals. And so does honesty I have found. And it is done so beautifully and warmly in this second book of theirs. I am in awe. Please read it. You will thank them. I do. Thank you. Ps. I am still reading it but needed to share. With love. And the writing is perfect. They captured celebration in despair. Thank you. Also @amazon carries also. 💛 “Disrupting the myth that joy can only be found in a pain free life.” @hopeheals @sufferstrong"***Here's a link to that book:  Suffer StrongFUMS NEEDS YOUR HELP: If you find value in this weekly email and want to see it continue, please visit the FUMS Patreon Page to learn more about how you can support FUMS and get some cool reward benefits as well!!  Warmly -- Kathy#FUMS
