Awww.....it's okay to feel sad. I was sort of OK with the whole diagnosis event, too, to be honest with you.

But, that's not to say I don't have my moments where I grieve the "old me" and the way things used to be. I commented the other night that I wish I could run again and my son thought that was so sad. I told him I didn't mention it to make anyone sad....I just wish I could run. I hope it made him think about how much we all take for granted and how it can be taken away at any time.

We all have pity-parties and then emerge renewed and recharged and ready to face another day. You can post an invitation to a pity-party on the MS forum and we'll all join you!! Sometimes we even bring food and drinks!
