TOS is debilitating, it's horrid but it won't beat us if we work with our bodies to counteract it.
Just listen to your body and work with it!
I know that at the end of the day that we all try to remain light-hearted but its no joke. And I truely believe that we can occassionally better this condition by staying focused and positive.
There is no place for negativity with TOS, otherwise it will take hold.
We are not "******".
This forum is to help pass on facts and ways to get through or at least learn to live with TOS------ Lets be POSITIVE.  |
Call it toser or not, once you get it you are... different. I don't consider myself as a normal citizen. So i don't compare myself with normal people, which is positive. You must accept it is debilitating and horrid, because of course it is.
1) accepting things
2) build resillience
3) Positive
I'm ****** but i'm ok and i search while being positive.
You don't like the word toser, because being ill is not good-viewed by our society, but it is better to be a toser than to be a normal person who can't use arms.
It's not a shame, anyone who got tos will get so ******, even the president.
