it is not fair of me to paint too rosy a picture

Beloved ms family. I include all of "YOU" but as usual this is directed to my newbies (newly diagnosed) especially. It is wrong of me to paint too rosy a picture of our disease. There are BAD times true. Very BAD, that is true. That is a fact. Please, do not believe that is all bad times, for it is NOT. Our disease is Relapsing-Remitting ms (RRms). That means that it comes and goes with its severity,

Comes and goes, as BAD as it may be now it might not be like that tomorrow, even an hour from now. That is the way of our disease. Do not be scared. Yes, we are going downhill, this is an incurable chronic illness, BUT there is no need to be terrified or to give up.

20+ years and I say loudly, this illness can be lived with. This chronic illness is NOT impossible, we all can live with this. "YOU" can live with it.

Royce

I am sorry if I upset "YOU" yesterday.

I am not going downhill. I am doing better now than I have since my diagnosis in 2006. I have been off DMTs since 2016. I am walking a mile every day. I am wearing high heels again. Please do not be so negative to “your” newbies.

Never too rosy too much negativity in life in general I believe it’s as bad as you let yourself believe. I prefer to believe besides the MS blips here and there my life is pretty darn good. Yay for Roses
