G’day my beloved ms family. As always “YOU” have my best wishes for the day, last night, tonight and every moment of every d and night. As a member of our Relapsing-Remitting ms (RRms) family “YOU” are not alone. “YOU” are never alone. what “YOU” are going through is what we have gone through. What we are going through. Talk to us, do not be a stranger, we are here to provide mutual support. To support each other, but we can not help “YOU” if “YOU” do not ask. Verbalize (say, your problem) aswk us for help.
Onto today's talk. I am ME. if I stumble, walk like I am drunk, lean on the wall, wear a nappy. This is me. I do not ask for yours or anybody's pity or sympathy. I understand that “YOU” do not understand, I do not always understand. I ask no demand that “YOU” accept that this is me. Actually I do not really care that “YOU” understand it. This is ME. Today I stumble, tomorrow I walk tall. I wear my ms t-shirt and hat as my badge of courage. Look at it, look at me. Accept that I am different as I accept your differences. I am not here to please “YOU”, to make your life comfortable or uncomfortable4. I am here for me, this is my life. This is the cross that I bare. Over my years it will shape me and change me. What was once so important may not be anymore. I hope that I learn and accept what this life has to offer me. I would like this RRms to mould me in ways that I never had imagined were possible. I would like to gain new prospectives and appreciations for what I can do. Be amazed that I was able to overcome (bend) without breaking from so many storms. Storms and obstacles that RRms will throw at me. I wish that I learn to be flexible, to say no, to look after me.
This, my sibling, is your life journey, your deck of cards. It is up to “YOU” to decide how “YOU” play it. The outcome is not prewritten, “YOU” decide. Strong or weak, crushed or merely temporarily knocked down. I am just me, as “YOU” are just “YOU”. We all walk a different journey, how you walk it is up to ” YOU”.
Royce ( your ms writer and brother)
Walk your journey, however you like, this is you nobody else
