There is always Hope. I was a heeled shoe person also, OMG, beautiful skinny heels for every outfit. My first obstacle was a bad lower back (b/f being dx'd w/MS) and all I could wear were good sneakers, but then I found a brand of sandals that I was shocked I could wear(after dx'd w/MS,25 yrs. w/MS, but dx'd 20 Yrs ago). So excited to be able to get away from the sneakers. Fit Flops(FitFlop.com) have great support for my back and they have added all kinds of styles that I love and wear, not the elegant high heels, but I love that I came across them. They have great support for both my back and stability for my MS. It's so difficult to have to try so many brands to see what works when you are forced to change what you truly love to wear and every other aspect of our lives w/the MS. I also feel truly Blessed to be able to do what I can, even though it does b/c a challenge almost everyday. I am still very happy w/what I do for that day. Stay as well as you can. God Bless.

It helps to hear from people who've passed these milestones before I have or will. I'm glad you see the blessings along the way, and I truly appreciate your advice!

I've worn my share of heels but those days are over. Then came the days of dressy 1-1&1/2 inch heeled shoes but sadly those days are over. I'm not to the point of the ugly medically suggested shoes, I now wear mostly tennis shoes or cute flat shoes but they have to have like a strap or something over the middle of the top of the foot, just in case my foot doesn't pick up or it drags, my shoe is still with me. I don't know how long you've been Dx'd with this MonSter, but me and the MonSter have been together for 27 years and that creep has taken so much from me. But I've had many blessing along the way also, extra time with my kids, learning to say "no", realizing who my REAL friends are, and becoming a stronger person who can help others by being there when no one else really understands. <br />Dance as long as you can, no matter what kind of shoes you have to wear.
