Details:
A professional musician
during the '70s and '80s, Rick
initially gave up his music career
back in 1983 to raise a family.
Before that job was done (is it ever,
really?) he was diagnosed with MS
in 1999, which progressed to the
point he was forced on disability in
2001.

Rick became very depressed over
the loss of many things, as we all
do, but especially over his inability
to create and sing his music. For
anyone with a passion, to lose it is
tantamount to losing a huge part of
oneself. We also must compensate for changes in our methodologies as well as
adapt to changes forced by MS.

For a long time, Rick was convinced he could never sing or play again -
especially at the level he did before MS. He couldn't feel his guitar strings
because of the numbness in his fingers, he couldn't be in his studio long due to
MS fatigue, he wasn't able to write songs and music due to MS cognitive loss,
and he felt his voice quality was forever impaired. I am one of his friends with
MS who knows we can do far more than we sometimes believe if we just try. I
also knew how beautiful his voice was and is, and have urged him, scolded him,
begged him, and even at times yelled at him to get back into his music! At long
last, he has. Reveiw by Lin Sarnecki-

I play for MS awareness and urge others to donate to MS research. $2 from the sale of my CD bought here are donated to MS Research. Thank you!
