Advantages

[RoyceNewton]

I beg your pardon, whatever do you mean, have you been drinking the purple cool aid again They just told me I am chronically disabled what possible advantage can I have.

Okay, I hear your point but bear with me a moment. You, of course, remember how I have nagged you endlessly about you starting a Disease Modifying Therapy (DMT), how I mentioned getting educated on all the factors about your illness, assets that are out there for you to use. I am quite surprised it took me ages to put the pieces together in my ms jigsaw. I just went for the 10000 piece set, I am silly like that, just have to make life interesting.

Anyway back to my point, you are looking all around and noting things as you should be. You are paying real serious crime scene investigation, a note of everything now,. That is very good so let.s start putting a few pieces together and see what we can come up with for a foundation. Naturally, you want the best foundation that you can get, your life with ms will be long with several bumps along it. Doing these early tasks will cushion that ride in your later years, and of course, we all want our very long ms lives to be as comfortable as possible. Just picture, when they get a really good treatment they will want the best of us to use it on. YOU DO want to be one of the best, don't YOU?

So in everything YOU do and in every way, seek the ADVANTAGE and give yourself that advantage. Exercise, eat right, sleep read, listen to uplifting music, educate yourself about our travelling companion. TAKE YOUR DMT . I will not go on, because I know that YOU know what to do. Of course, if you get a little lost. Use that big hole in your face and ASK, QUESTION, INQUIRE, RESEARCH and maybe even learn. Being an ignorant patient is NEVER EVER to your ADVANTAGE, and WE ALL are about getting EVERY SINGLE ADVANTAGE that we can aren't WE?

There are always advantages that YOU can make use of to have an easier life. Start this habit early and you can live a much easier less stressful life. Later YOU can stand there and think "why did I not see that years ago, it is so obvious"

So you will understand, yes ms is rather inconvenient and tricksy, but YOU can find a way around a lot of it by just travelling YOUR ms journey with your eyes wide open and looking for that advantage, oh yes that one as well.

I have given you something to think about, so lets just quietly walk the path awhile and think, Just REMEMBER that this is a DOABLE illness and YOUR CHOICES determine a little how hard or easier it is for YOU.
