ms is a lifelong illness

G'day Sisters and Brothers.23 or so years so fart, I expect another 20 or so. Barring any unforeseen happenings I personally should live with this illness for 50 Years. 50 years, 50 years. In 50 years, I learned to drive a car and fly an aeroplane. I married 2 women, got divorced by one and had 10 or 11 Magnetic Resonance Images (MRIs) taken of my brain and 1 of my spinal cord. I have seen changes. This is just another change. There is no reason to be afraid, to fight it. It is just another change and change means I am alive, above the ground. Something to accept, flow with, NOT swim upriver against.

Your ms we'll bring changes. Adapt to the changes. Make yourself adaptable as best YOU can. This IS something that YOU can do, Make a decision and DO IT. I have confidence in YOU, live a long time.

"Adapt to the changes" should be the mantra for anyone with a chronic illness.

It's so good to see your comments here. I don't take time to get on much anymore. Too many things to do, and the time and energy doesn't allow it. But, your comments and encouragement are very much appreciated and enjoyed, even though I don't respond. Keep up the good work, as you are a blessing to all of us. Just seeing your name gives me encouragement to keep on, keeping on! I'm doing very well, just slowing down a little, with age I guess.
