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?
Figuring out life with MS
MS Killed It for Me / What are your hobbies?
Having a song stuck in your head
how do you measure how MS impacts your cognitive abilities?
