Good morning to "YOU" my beloved ms family. As always my hope for "YOU" is that last night brought "YOU" quiet and restful sleep. Mine was in turmoil and I do not have any idea why. The ms gremlins were running rampant last night, just enough to mess things up, BUT this is normal. What I expect from this sneaky diabolical disease. It knows no end and my control over it may be good, but it will NEVER be total. So, in my case, grin and bear it. What happens, happens and I will keep coping. Plans are just ideas, reality may have other things in mind.
There is only one thing ever set in stone, I WILL TAKE MY DISEASE-MODIFYING THERAPY( DMT). The rest will happen if it happens. Be flexible with your life. Ironclad decisions only lead to disappointment, be flexible. Be easy on yourself. If "YOU" aren't, how can "YOU" expect others to be? Be like bamboo, bend with situations. Be like seagrass, go with the flow. Do not be a stubborn old tree, blown over and uprooted in the winds for life.
I will try never to tell "YOU" this is an easy life with ms. It is Not, it demands a lot of us all. "YOU" may not believe it at times but within "YOU" is the resilience to survive through the many years "YOU" have with ms. I have been trying for many years to make it go away. It will NOT.

ms is mine for LIFE, but it will be my life.
