I have had MS all my adult life. I never accepted being disabled. People in my youth thought I was odd because I can't walk ialong side some one without walking into them. People thought I had a personal space problem!!! I have been asked if I have parkinson's on a bad day. "Why don't you train on your upper left side"

So.....
Now I am in my 50s and all manner of health problems have hit me.
I try to use humour and if allowed serenity., Plus wisdom from all my mistakes.
I am moved by healthunblockef.com
I feel in a humble position and also close to tears because I can read about people similar to me.
No to people are the same.

I love the words you wrote in your post! I am 60 years old. I was diagnosed in 2018 at age 58 with Primary Progressive MS. To say I was devastated is a huge understatement! People, such as yourself, inspire me everyday. Thank you for posting!
