Hello everyone, I’m new here and don’t really know how it all works yet, but I guess with some help, I may be able to interact with other people and maybe make some friends along the way.
I have MS and whilst I’m still capable mentally, my physical abilities are becoming much worse. 
But rather than talking about my health issues I’d love to interact with other people. So I’d love to hear from you.

    Hi @scrappydoo1967! Welcome to the Scope online community :) we try to be a friendly and interactive bunch. I know we've several people here who have MS as well, so I'm sure you'll find people going through similar circumstances.

    First of all, I assume your name is from the Scooby Doo cartoon? It's been so long since I watched those, loved them when I was a kid. Are there any other shows you really like?

    hi Jimm
    thank you for your message, yes ScrappyDoo is the small fiesty puppy from the cartoon, and was a nickname I was given in my youth, perhaps because I was also bit fiesty 😁

    debates sounds like something I’d really enjoy, so how do I get involved in those?
