Hey –
My name is Jennifer Rios and I have had MS for 23 years. I am currently wheelchair bound and do not like how this disease has changed my life. I am now working to change how I deal with the difficulties I face every single day with having this diagnosis to make life a little more bearable.
If you’re wondering where I got these SWEET rims, I went to spinlife.com.

Jen, I’ve always admired your strength and determination! Thank you for sharing it with me! I’m loving reading your posts and “catching up”! Miss you! xo
You have such a beautiful spirit and your strength is inspirational. I’m so excited to now be among your followers!!!
I like to believe we are never given more than we can handle. You make that belief for me stronger! To accomplish all you have with this awful disease makes me think to never have an EXCUSE! Not only are you inspiring, you are a leader and example to follow! I’m so very proud of all you are doing and it is an honor to call you my sister! By the way “Aunt Jenny can you get my bike out of the garage?”
Hi Jen,
It was great to see you the other week and hear about your blog. I didn’t realize after you stopped coming in to see us 6 or 7 years ago that you had stopped walking. I’m so happy that you are up and walking again. I would love to come with you sometime to your gym and watch you train. Hope you and your family had a great Thanksgiving!!

Hi Jen,
WAY TO GO!!!! We are so proud of you. Keep up all your hard work it will pay off at the end 🙂 Have faith… You will always be in our prayers 🙂
Love you lots,
Lina
Hi Jennifer – great blog! You are an impressive woman in so many ways and now a writer, too! I will be following your journey and am grateful for a way to be closer to you since we see each other so rarely. I can only imagine the hardships you have to endure – that which we all take for granted. But you do it with grace and strength and, truly, you are an inspiration. xo!
Love, Aunt Peggy
I am inspired and amazed by you everyday . The courage it takes to get to school daily and be able to teach all day. Your day doesn’t end there. It is time to get yourself to physical therapy and then home to take care of your home and child.
You run circles around people who don’t have to deal with physical limitations.
Again, you are truly someone to look up to!
God Bless and hang in there!
Jen- You Rock and Roll! I love you girl. – Ami
I love seeing the kids on here call you Ms. Rios. I think to myself, “I was there when she BECAME Ms. Rios.” 🙂 As always, so proud of you, JR, in everything you do.
Jen, you are such a strong and beautiful woman. You inspire me, daily. I love you, girl.
Nice to see you at church this afternoon. Following! Praying for your goals to be reached!!
Jen
URock, just finish reading your blog, you are inspiration to a lot of people, all the best in your journey!
Rowland
You are a wonderful person and I am glad I met you!!!!
Jenny,
You amaze me everyday with your strength and perserverance! Your smile and grace belie your daily struggle and I look forward to reading about your journey. I’m so very proud of you.
God bless and love you always,
Aunt Iris
Hi Jenny,
Here is something I found and wanted to share with you.

Aunt Iris
This is my first blog and I am glad its yours.I pray for you. Love you
I know how hard this disease is. We all take so much for granted. I will never forget the 1st tine I saw you getting stretched. The pain coupled with determination that was in your face made me cry. At the same time I am so proud of your will to get better, whatever that may be.
Hi Jen: I am new at this blogging thing, but here goes. I am not new at MS, however, as I was diagnosed in 1974 when I was 27 years old and I am 68 (69 in October). I read the publication MS Connnection Newsletter and the Summer 2016 issue really caught my eye. First, because I am in crisis mode currently and The Necessity of Hope article really hit home. Secondly, I live in Dearborn as well, which is quite the coincidence I think. I have reached a point in my disease process where I am considering transitioning to a motorized wheelchair, but I am not sure if I should. As you know, when you have MS, everybody has an opinion, but your thoughts on it would mean a lot to me. My story is long and probably boring, but I will communicate with you a little at a time. I just wanted to introduce myself and get a feel for this blogging thing. Nice to meet you Jen and we will talk soon, I hope. Charleen Golen?
Just came across this blog from #chatms on twitter. I’m very excited to learn about your story! I was diagnosed last year and am also in a wheelchair right now so I’m extra interested in reading about you. ?
You are an inspiration to all of us MS warriors and many others! Keep it up! Praying for God’s blessings and love and strength for you!
You’ve always been so fun and positive. I like how you aren’t afraid to be raw with your emotions as you go through this journey. You are inspiring. ❤️
Jen, Idk how this works, but hope by commenting here, it will help you. Can you let me know if I have to do something else. Love you!
Love you hun….
I do not know whether it’s just me or if everybody else encountering problems with your website.

off the screen. Can someone else please provide feedback and let
me know if this is happening to them as well? This may be a problem with my web browser because I’ve had
this happen previously. Thanks

Fair play to you. My best friend was diagnosed at the start of the year and she’s struggling to accept it. I’ll tell her about your blog. Thank you.
I was wondering if you ever considered changing the structure of your
blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you coould a little more in the way of content so people could connect
with iit better. Youve got an awful lot of
text for only having one or 2 pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?
You really are amazing! And you have a beautiful smile 🙂 Praying for you sweet girl!
I believe this is among the such a lot important information for me.
And i’m glad studying your article. But wanna commentary
on some normal issues, The web site style is ideal, the articles iss truly nice : D.
