Sept. 6 was the day. The MS diagnosis came out of the blue 4 years ago. And I mean out of the blue. I had no problems until 3 weeks prior to the MRI. Then my GP says, let's just do an MRI to be safe. I get home at 4:30 from the MRI and at 6 pm I get the call from the doc, "I'm sorry I have some bad news." Then I fainted. How do others deal with these weird anniversaries? I almost forgot it this year but was only reminded because a friend was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis today.

I wish I had forgotten this anniversary--so close! That diagnosis was so traumatic. I'm sure for others, who were seeking answers, it was more reassuring or helpful. Stupid MS, I say!!

Oh carp...maybe I even got this wrong and it was the 7th.
