I've been a little quiet here but January 16th I have my first appointment at the MS Institute in Denver to see if I qualify for the stem cell program. I’ve waited a long time for this opportunity and I’m really hoping for good news. Please say some prayers for me

It’s infusion day for Jake. Please pray this will help him get some strength and energy back. Last week was a rough one.

Hello MS family,

I know I’ve been a little quiet on here lately, so I wanted to give you all an update. About three months ago, I was diagnosed with secondary progressive multiple sclerosis. The good news is that my scans show the medicine is doing its job and stopping the spread. The harder part is that, even though it’s not progressing, my symptoms have been getting worse.

Recently, I’ve started noticing issues with my left leg, on top of the symptoms in my arms. Right now, I’m waiting to get into another program where I may be able to participate in studies—possibly even looking into stem cell treatment or other options.

I’m not working at the moment, and I’m doing my best to stay positive, though it’s definitely not easy some days. I just wanted you all to know why I’ve been so quiet.

Wishing everyone a good day and sending strength to all of you 💙

There’s a peace that settles in during our night bike rides with my brother Jake and the open road. When the world gets quiet, the weight of MS feels a little lighter.

Jake doesn’t talk about it much with other people, but I know how heavy it can be—the pain, the uncertainty, the fatigue that never seems to fully go away. But on these rides, it’s like we get to leave all that behind for a while.

We don’t need to say much. We just ride. Side by side. It’s our way of escaping the noise and pressure of life with MS. It’s where I see glimpses of the brother I grew up with—the one who’s strong, adventurous, and full of life.

These rides remind me that MS may be part of our story, but it doesn’t get to steal his happiness. And as long as Jake wants to ride, I’ll be right there next to him—every mile, every night, every step forward.

Hey everyone – we know it’s been a little quiet on this page lately. To be honest, Jake has really been struggling the past few weeks. He experienced some new symptoms during a recent MS flare-up and has been focused on resting and recovering.

That said, there is some good news. With the extra funds from the fundraiser, we were able to purchase Jake’s new bike – and we can’t thank you all enough! This bike is going to be a huge part of helping him rebuild some of the muscle he’s lost and give him some much-needed freedom and independence.

Thank you all again for your love, support, and generosity. It truly means the world to us. 💙

Hey y’all I just wanted to share what’s been going on with me. Last Friday, I started having some really bad symptoms, mostly affecting the left side of my body. It wasn’t just my leg both of my hands and my left leg were acting up. I ended up missing the entire week of work. I tried going back in on Thursday, but my body just couldn’t handle it.

I reached out to my MS specialist because I was really concerned. The symptoms lasted over a week and just kept getting worse. I went in for some blood work, which thankfully came back normal, and I also had some CT scans done. From what I can tell, everything looks okay it doesn’t seem like anything is spreading.

It looks like I was just going through a really rough relapse, but I think I’m in the clear now."*
Now I just need to see what the next steps are on finishing this recovery from this relapse

Hello friends and family,
We wanted to let you know that we will not be attending the MS Walk in Windsor this year. Our main priority over the last few months was focusing on my benefit. I've also been very busy with therapy and connecting with various non-profit organizations that have reached out.
We truly appreciate your continued support and are planning to return for the MS Walk next year.
To those who have already donated to the MS Walk thank you so much for your generosity. It means a great deal to us.

Quick little Bioness update last Christmas, it took me about 35 minutes to walk to the Denver outlets, and it was a real struggle. Today, I made it to the same store in just 10 minutes. Definitely seeing some progress!
