When I was working, my MS was my secret except with close friends and family. After I stopped working, I kind of kept it to myself as I met new people. I didn't want to be judged until they got to know me. Now the fact that I have MS just comes out in every day conversation. Besides my daughter tells all her friends and isn't quiet about it. I took my cue from her and now I am very comfortable telling people. It has made my life a lot easier in so many ways.

If I worked it might be different, but I tell people as willingly as I tell them I have two daughters . . . It's just a part of my life.
Sometimes I have to say 'something', because I have obstacles. Like the other day I had to send some flowers, but I couldn't write the card. I asked the flourist if she would mind because I have MS and can't write. No one ever asks any questions, just brushes it off like I do. Cherie
