Acceptance 1 Oct 2021

Family, sorry for being slack today, I just slept in and stayed in bed. Far to many Alexas in this house, set with music, my joint dog and she who must be obeyed. Life s good "YOU" are the only reason for getting out of bed. Well, medicine as well.

How are "YOU" doing? Are "YOU" coming to terms with your diagnosis (Dx)? It is okay if it takes a while. Just think "YOU" have it and sometimes "YOU" do not understand it. Have some sympathy for others who are deeply confused as well. I often have issues with she who must be obeyed and her ms difficulties, as she does me and we both have the same illness. It has only been 20+years maybe one day we will get it, maybe not. So if I am that intimate with a fellow ms family member, what can "YOU" honestly expect from others?

Learn to accept your illness, your new position in the world. Sadly, there is nothing we can do to change it. Learn to adapt and do the best for yourself as "YOU" can. There is NO GIVING UP. "YOU" are what "YOU" are, be at ease with that.

You spend your life, and your daily posts, trying to encourage, give hope, comfort and help educate those of us with the same crappy disease you have to deal with each day. Don't you think it's time you slept in one morning????? Thank you, Royce, for being you, and for all that you do for all of us. I've lived with the MS monster for over 40 years now, and it is difficult to understand what other people with MS are dealing with...how can we, when our own symptoms and bodies do different things with no warning! Surprise, look at this! You are doing great, Royce, and someday you will know that! Thank you! Linda
