Birthday treat, but not sweet

I drink black coffee. Honestly, haven't had a Starbucks coffee in years because I just brew my moka pot at home at 6:00 a.m. I usually don't have caffeine after 11:00 a.m.

Today I probably won't be making it to the Starbucks on my birthday until the afternoon.

Feels pretty boring getting a black iced coffee with a few shots poured in - and saving it in the fridge for the next day.

Previous years I have treated myself to a dirty chai latte with tons of pumps... And just questioned why I'm trying to max out the price and not even enjoying it.

What are my options now? Decaffeinated tea? Which food items qualify? Bottled drinks?

Goodbye old friend

It has only been 2 years. Wife accidentally snapped the handle yesterday...

Today is mother's Day, so I can't even stay mad or show mourning for my loss - except to all of you.

This morning I used it without the handle. The slightly larger replacement will be delivered today.

Let's not cry. Let's just remember all the good times!

I been taking Tysabri for a couple of years and was not deteriorating- Had RRMS. Then two years ago my doctor suggested that I switched to Ocrevus. Really I made the switch just for the convenience of going every six months and not every month - in hindsight this was a mistake.

I realize these medications work completely differently. My mobility deteriorated significantly. I now certainly have PPMS.

I decided to stop taking Ocrevus a couple of years ago and have not been on any DMT, since then As I would continue to deteriorate Dash I've decided that it makes sense for me to go back onto a DMT, especially now that it is spring and there's not as many viruses around (I have young kids so it's definitely a concern to catch a cold every week during the winter). I messaged my doctor stating that I was ready to go back onto a DMT and asking specifically for Tysabri. He responded saying that Ocrevus was really the much better drug. I messaged him again with my reasoning for wanting to be on Tysabri. He has not gotten back to me yet. Just want to get your thoughts everyone
