As a woman who is living with multiple sclerosis for almost 10 years(and most of lesions in my brain), your store and site is amazing. I'm a licenced attorney who hasn't been able to work or even read since my first attack in march 2000, but your site and blog is like a positive plug for the new year ahead.

His cousins in grad school and working as nurses couldn't wait to get their hands on this. We think this will be fun for the day our son stays home from daycare (we'll have to simplify for him at first and do the steps for him till he gets older), but we were looking for activities that don't require going out and spending a lot of money.
