I was diagnosed with MS in February 2019. Covid had just hit. My Neurologist delayed any treatment until July because of it. In July 2019 I had an infusion treatment. At this time I was basically homeless and staying on a friends couch in Ohio. Eventually I got offered a low income apartment in Kentucky where I had previously been living prior to becoming homeless. Treatment was again delayed until March of 2021. I elected to go with the monthly shot instead of the 6 month infusion treatments because I could do it at home. Traveling an hour and a half to the nearest VA was just to hard as the treatments make me extremely weak and tired. I went from using a cane to a walker by the time my treatments were actually started. Now I am using a wheelchair mostly but get physical therapy weekly to try and improve the strength of my leg muscles. It is slow going but I am improving. I think that having an Alinker bike would help with that a lot. It would also enable me to resume activities that are almost impossible to do now. I am an amateur photographer and have been one since the age of 14. Using a walker to take my favorite nature shots is almost impossible because I need to keep one hand on the walker for balance. Also, my legs give out after a few minutes. The Alinker would allow me to be seated with both hands available to use my camera. It could also allow me to resume my love of Disc Golf for the same reason, not to mention strengthening my leg muscles. Before the MS took over my body I was very active physically. Now I am pretty much sedentary. My quality of life would be much improved with the Alinker. Please help me obtain one so I can improve my quality of life.
