The Song For Your MS Life?

I attended the local MS Can Do Jumpstart event Saturday and there was a young girl at my table who talked about how she had been diagnosed with this mess only a couple of months ago. She didn't really come out and say it, but I could just see how scared she was of this monster of a diagnosis when she was just starting her life as a young woman. I really understood her terror, as did so many of my fellow attendees, all of whom were talking to her. I too, wanted to comfort her. Share my very similar story, and pass along something she might find helpful. But the only thing I could really say was to tell her about a song I heard about the same time I was going through my original diagnosis. Pam Tills had ust released a new song that really seemed to sum up everything I was feeling and thinking at the time: "In Between Dances". It was a rough and scary diagnosis, but the world wasn't coming to an end! "I'm just sittin' it out for awhile." I played that song over and over and over. And I really wish I remembered that song LAST year, when I was trying to remind my legs how to work after being stuck in a hospital bed for 5 months.

So was there a particular song you heard or still run through your head to get you through this mess you're going through?

I have a handful of hymns that get me through. Music and good lyrics are really powerful.

not much a person can say to make them believe that their life as it is is over but we can say it won't kill them but again that doesn't help but just to say there are lots of people that have lived a long life and enjoyed it so look into yourself for some help and if believes in God that is also helpful...meeting with others with it can be helpful...so sorry for her if she is all by herself ....love and happiness to her to try and understand it just like what we all felt in the beginning ...

My outlook on a lot of things. It enables me to figure out what to do with a clear head.
