It really and truly is, what have “YOU”done today to explore it? Anything? Nothing. Why not? “YOU” have a computer, “YOU” can obviously use it so why are “YOU” not exploring the fascinating objects available to “YOU”? I am being quite serious, there is so much to learn, so much to see. Okay, “YOU” like me might have difficulties in doing, but there is absolutely no excuse for not learning.
This illness that we all have, Relapsing Remitting ms (RRms) is annoying but truly fascinating when “YOU” take time to stop disliking it intensely and look at it through inquisitive eyes. So many possibilities,today so many treatment options. Back in my day long ago (twenty years) I had one. A few years before there were none, today there are so many I can not name them al, in another twenty. Who knows, maybe a really affective treatment. Not a cure, but a really good non needle treatment. As everybody knows I am needle phobic. I have a very irrational fear of needles. Maybe fear is the wrong word, dislike is probably more correct. So of course it will have to be a non needle treatment. It will not be for me or those who came before me, but just maybe, maybe it will be for “YOU” will “YOU” be ready for it? That is the million dollar\pound question. Will “YOU be ready for it.
Are “YOU” doing absolutely everything, moving the sky and the earth to insure when that treatment arrives that “YOU” my friend will be first in line for your dose?
That is the best way I have found to cope with our current predicament.
We have woken up and got out of bed each morning with a smile on our faces. RRms, we survived the night and we are strong for another day. Today we are going to eat right, drink right, exercise take our Disease Modifying Therapy(DMT) and keep ourselves as strong as we can for that treatment. As well as that keeping ourselves strong is a good excuse to feel good and like some sort of a success. Physically strong and healthy is great, but emotionally strong is great as well. Find some positivity in your life. It does not have to be all doom and gloom. Constant fear of what if, what next.
Without a doubt, when “YOU” put your mind to it. Make that decision that “YOU” will not be broken, merely bent. “YOU” can and will find that your RRms isn very doable. Not sunshine and lollipops, but never doom and gloom, never ending fear and constant weakness.
RRms takes from “YOU”, things that do not always return one hundred percent, but here is a “BUT” “YOU” now have the opportunity to become something new. Something far different than what “YOU” ever expected or imagined. Dream, dream big dreams, achieve little one, just dream big, and live this your RRms life well.
