oops Lara,
Not so young really. 56 now 55 when first properly diagnosed after a couple of years of being told my symptoms were psychosomatic. (classic age for MSA)
Had my daughter later in life when I remarried. (Best thing I ever did...she brings me so much joy)
I had always said I would not be on old father. My father was older and I always said I would never do that to a kid. I have and I am so glad I did.
I am not seeing a therapist. As I said, work have been fantastic and offered me or anyone in my family access to one. Psychologically I am going OK, although I do find myself googling Australian euthanasia laws from time to time. I'm ok now but I am worried about those around me at the end (euthanasia Illegal in Australia)
She (Daughter) knows my balance and speech will never get better.
Thanks for the kind words.
I'll just keep taking one day at a time.[/QUOTE]
