Having great anxiety over staying with DHs family over Christmas. Some of you may remember I have not revealed to my husband's family that I have MS. They have preconceived opinions about MS and no amount of education can sway them. He is the youngest of 6 so there are a lot of 'em...

It is harder and harder to keep up the story we tell them. Over ten years ago I crushed my ankle and we keep telling them that is why I am in AFos & use forearm crutches & a wheelchair. I have to have a good nap every day and have other issues due the the monster.

I am really having some dread over this stay and all the prying questions and their frustration at my 'laziness' (fatigue). Please say a quiet prayer I get thru this weeklong stay without snapping or crying.
