Around 1999 my MS really kicked into high gear. My daily routine of walking with walker up and down my apartment complex's hallway (it was an entire city block long) was becoming more difficult each week. The IV Solumedrol was starting to be useless. My legs were failing.
My partner was having similar difficulties and our physical outlet was the PBS TV show, The Teletubbies. We watched it daily, taped it, bought special tapes, and danced our hearts out.
Yes, it was just a silly kids show, but the movements it encouraged were all we were up to. The music and cute characters kept our spirits up. We made it a happy time, a happy memory in the midst of one of the lowest health times of our lives.
Thank you, Teletubbies! You helped two ailing people stay active, laugh, and have a feeling of accomplishment.
