I am going on holiday for two weeks or so

I love you all, but it is the 50th, so I have a holiday I have been saving for. Saving very badly but hey I like toys, and they have had some good ones in the last decade, and I have a lot of them, and the debt to prove it.

By now everybody knows full well my attitude towards this condition. "YOU CAN; YOU WILL, YOU DO Relapsing Remitting ms(RRms)" I say it to "YOU", I believe it and to the best of my ability I live it. Sometimes I fail, fail miserably. That is okay. I brush myself off, patch the cuts and scrapes. Pull my shoulders back wipe the tears away and take a step, then another and another. I am beaten when they throw that very last sod of earth on my grave. Until then Left, Right, Left, Right, never stop moving. Learn all that "YOU" can. Adapt your new knowledge to your circumstances and implement the changes that "YOU" need most. Do not be upset by failures just learn from them or accept them. None of us is perfect, we are learning. Mistakes are okay, just learn from them. It is all about learning and accepting this condition. Do not give in and surrender to it, just find your way to make your ms journey as comfortable and as fulfilling as "YOU" possibly can.

You can You will You do are my words, perhaps take a few minutes and think of some that have meaning to "YOU" Use them if "YOU" like but feel free to change them. There are only three rules in RRms.

1 wear your protective underwear

2 Take your Disease-modifying therapy (DMY)

3 Never give up because there is never a need to.

Have a wonderful two weeks, and thank you very much for the birthday wishes I appreciate it. I will see "YOU" all when I get back.

Royce

Relax it is only RRms, and it is really no big deal, mostly annoying and we have got this handled.
