Dear Pickingup the pieces,
I am so sorry to hear of your mothers passing. It must be very hard for you, not only coming to terms with her passing but trying to understand the disease she was suffering with.
Your mothers diagnosis must have come as a shock to all of you. You were probably very much like the rest of us in that you had never heard of MG, until a consultant uttered those words.
Thank you for sharing your story with us and welcome to the forum.
I think I would be right in saying that it doesn't matter how long you've been ill, you still learn stuff about this disease all the time.
The forum is great as you can ask loads of questions and someone will be able to relate to your experience or have the knowledge to help you. So please feel free to ask away!
If there's anything I can ever do to help you, I will.
Much love
Rach
