What can “YOU” do to make everything better? Your health, your attitude. Really I might suggest that is the only two things that “YOU” have to make better. Ha gotcha there “YOU” thought this was going to be easy. This is ms Life, nothing is just easy now. From now on “YOU” have to think.
let us break it down into smaller bite size pieces. Health, well simple here get on a Disease Modifying Therapy )DMT) today in 2019 there are several and I always recommend starting at the strongest. It is medicine so there are side effects, cope with them. Change if “YOU must but never ever stop taking them. “YOU” will regret it eventually. Change is okay and not to be feared. Learn your condition its in and outs, its variability. its weirdness as it pertains to “YOU” because let me assure “YOU” that your ms is different to mine. Mine is special just for me.
Secondly, your attitude. This may take awhile but “YOU” have to become comfortable with your ms. I know it sounds strange but my ms got me out of a terrible marriage and into a friendship with an older woman that has lasted years. Ok she is only a couple of years older but still older and she has been a rock in my life for along time. I certainly hope I am that in hers. “YOU” see the picture. I can paint the picture of my ms as black storm clouds or I can paint it as nice rolling fields with a few clouds in the distance. It is without a doubt rolling hills because an ms life is not an easy sunny afternoon stroll through the fields. There are ups and downs and the terrain is gradually downhill, but my downhill can be slowly steadily downhill not off the edge of a cliff downhill.
With a positive attitude even off the edge of a cliff downhill can just be a stumble not a long fall to jagged rocks hundreds of feet below. Do “YOU” see the options available to “YOU” A diagnosis or life with ms does not have to ever be terrible and hopeless. “YOU” have this really powerful device between your ears. Use it to paint your picture brighter. Brighter than “YOU” might think it is, better than what others may tell “YOU” it will be. I will say now, a life with ms can be better than “YOU” think, better than “YOU” ever dreamed it could be. This is a long life with ms, why not make it a good one and be happy and for filling. Whatever that may mean to “YOU”
