No, most certainly it does not. The world keeps throwing obstacles into my perfect minutely laid plans. I guess it is up to me to ADAPT. My life and yours I am sure was not meant to be this way. I am not quite sure how it was meant to be, but it is like this now. These obstacles are here and we must pass through them and ever forward. To what and where I do not know, but onward I must go. Relapsing Remitting ms(RRms) is merely an obstacle. Not too big for me to find a way around or through, but yes an obstacle. I like "YOU" can cope with and DO this illness. It can be part of us or it can be us, I do not think I mind either way, for my reality is that it just IS, IS and nothing else.
RRms is a part of me and I am comfortable with that. Continually fighting and being a warrior against is tiring. Forty or fifty years of battling is a lot. I accept a conditional defeat. Total surrender is sitting in that dark corner and I see, feel, think that there is no need for that. My terms can change as my decades pass. I will not give ms all of me, what it does take,I will fight against if I can. The fire still burns within me. Some weeks fiercely some days a little dimmer, but it always burns and will burn forever. I like "YOU" have RRms, that will never ever go away, but neither will our resilience and determination.
NO, no matter what RRms throws at us we will keep moving, learning and enduring. This is our RRms life and we make and change the rules.

This is my RRms life and I am going to make it as good and worthwhile as I can, why do you not do the same?
