Hey everyone! I recently joined this group mainly because it would be nice to have someone understand me without a lengthy explanation of the hows & whys of MS; especially when a new systom hits & you don't know why/how. How do you explain that to someone who dosen't have MS & looks at you like you may be a fruitcake?
It would be nice to not feel so alone all the time.
You're in great company here! Welcome! We really do understand what you go through, with all the weird and changing symptoms and people not understanding or even believing you.
I have found some great sites from which I've printed off information to give to family and friends. Some are blogs and others are general information sites. Others may never really understand unless they get MS themselves, but information from people other than ourselves can sometimes seem more believable.
Welcome! I try not to explain.
Hi there, you are definitely not alone. Feel right at home here, you are amongst people who really understand. We all have ms, but we are all different. Welcome, blessings Jimeka 😊
You've found the right place. I have found the people here to be warm, friendly, and very helpful.
ok people! you can see I struggle when I walk,so you need an explaination,here it isI have something that makes me struggle to walk,do you still need to ask?to those folks i say,DUHHH
My response, for years...
After my hip replacement and now this!
“If you don’t like it, don’t look”
Sounds harsh, after typing it...
I have never asked anyone, their ‘story’....
I tell them I'm hammered. 
Actually no, I usually just respond by saying I have MS.
Many times, they are too embarrassed (?) to pursue a nosier line of questioning but if I know them well, they might ask other things.
Lol Can I borrow the "I'm hammered" line 🤣
Sure!
Welcome to our little division of fruitcakes!😁 🙃😲😁😎
We certainly understand each other without lengthy explanations, sometimes lengthy healthy rants, but no explanations.
Well your in the right place Dieselbaby ! We are all fruitcakes here! Oh wait, that's pretty much just me! 😊 But we get it!!! And here your not alone!🤗💕🌠
So happy you found us! Don't cha hate it when you say, "I am so tired" and the response is "I get tired, too"? Others just don't get it! We do...
Welcome to the group. Rest assured, you are NOT a fruitcake. I am looking forward to having you share in this group. We are so diverse yet have so much in common, if that makes sense. Please share your insights, ask your questions, and laugh along with us as we navigate this lovely thing called MS.
Welcome aboard! Pretty pup in your profile pic! Looks so soft and shiny!
He says Thank you 🐶🐶
What breed is he? Lab?
1/2 Lab 1/2 Great Dane; he's getting way big on me. He's 9 months 90lbs with 35" chest! 😁🐶
That explains why I couldn't figure it out. Sure looked like Great Dane hips, but the face looked lab-ish.
I've got a half Dane, half German Shorthaired Pointer. He's not quite as tall as our last full blooded Dane, but still stands at 32" shoulders and probably close to 140 lbs (hasn't been weighed since neutered in Aug, 125 then). Our boy is almost 15 mos. He's quite a fool!
Welcome to the forum, Dieselbaby
