The one that stands out in my mind wasn't the woman's fault, because she didn't HEAR me correctly.

I was having trouble getting around, and she asked if something was wrong...

I replied, "I have MS".

And she said, "Oh, I know what you mean, I'm a mess, too!"

I've now learned to say "multiple sclerosis" unless I'm sure the person knows what MS means.
