Most of the time, I just blow the comments off as ignorance and just make the comment that, "Everyone ends up with something in their lifetime that becomes chronic. You just haven't gotten yours yet." Or, I just leave it at, "Everyone ends up with something. Mine is just MS."

BUT . . .This comment blew my mind. I couldn't even respond. I was speechless. This elderly lady tells me, "But your so beautiful." WHAT? DBF was with me, saw the confusion and shock on my face, and explained my bad days to her. Phew!
