Re: SSD

[Guest guest]

Matt,

Thank you so much. As far as games, why don't you start with something

easysuch as Go Fish card games. I do reallylike my Nintendo too. The

next thing I want is the Wii. I am physically unable to do things like

bowling and tennis etc. anymore, but there are a lot of things I can do

with the Wii. It can be played from a wheelchair! My best friends

husband has MS and when they have family game night we play for hours.

Of course lot's of snoozing afterwards but it is great for mind, body

and your mood.
