'well, i'm glad they have a cure for that, cause they don't for me' ... and go on to say, 'I have a disease that doesn't have a cure because they don't know the cause. I have MS.'

And then walk away

Very well said Niko!!

When I hear people moan about how they have fallen down and broken their wrist and how bad the pain is, I just feel like yelling at them and saying "Well at least with a cast or an operation, you will be better and able to lead a normal life, myself and others with the same illness as me will probably never be able to"!! It really frustrates me and makes me so mad but I never say anything - I am one of those people that just keeps everything hidden away inside until I explode!!

Thank you for posting this - it really helped me realise that it isn't just me who feels the same way!!
