glossary

I had this idea some time ago, and now is a good time to do it...

Our new reality, brought on a new language...here is a list of words and definitions:

Rockstar parking: handicap parking

needle time: a Rebif injection (which happens 3 times a week)

P.I.D day: post-injection day (the day after a Rebif needle)

wobbles: I feel as if I'm moving, swaying, "just got a off a merry-go-round", exaggerated movements: subjective (or is it objective?) vertigo (I'm moving, not the world)

sensitive: wobbles could come on at any moment

"I've got a band-aid on my (insert body part here)": a numb sensation somewhere on my body, most typically my right knee, or right abdomen

not centered: slightly off center (I don't know how to explain it)

fog: brain not totally aware of the goings on

Ladyfingers: my mom

bad day: wobbles, fog, fatigue
