When I was first diagnosed (Dx'd) 5 Sep 2021

G'day ms family, I hope you are well today and last night was good and quiet for "YOU". 20+ years ago I wish somebody had told me it was going to be okay. Somebody actually did eventually, and it has been. Despite everything that ms throws at "YOU", "YOU" WILL BE OKAY. Honestly, this is a topsy turvy weird disease, but "YOU" will be okay. There are strange weird times ahead, but "YOU WILL BE O)KAY"

Do your best and do not give up on yourself.

Royce

YOU will be okay.

I think that is important not to let any scared newbie do something stupid out of fear of things that probably will not happen

I worked for a woman who had MS & when I was diagnosed, I told her as I thought I could get some solid advice.

I was wrong.

I wish I could describe her reaction to my "news" accurately. It was like a child that is about to get it's candy taken away.

I really didn't want that diagnosis, ya know?

MS is a part of my life but not my whole life.

each of us is different and it sounds like she may have been a little different.

She was.
