I think it's very interesting about the number of people on here who had mono. I never had it, but was exposed to two close friends in high school who were both hospitalized because of it.

I grew up in Canton, Ohio. We had very few sunny days compared to other parts of the rest of the country. It is also an industrial town. I had the usual measles, mumps and chicken pox as a kid. I also had a lot of chest infections for which the doc would give me a shot of penicillin in the behind.

In high school, I fell a few times. In my 20's, I started falling more often. I just thought I was exceptionally clumsy.

My DIL grew up in Kenya, and she told me that MS is very rare there. They are exposed to the sun a lot, do heavy outdoor work, and eat all natural foods. She used to plow a field with a wooden plow and a cow, and cut grass with a machete. Maybe that has something to do with it. I won't, but I could go on and on about Lenny. The stories she tells about her life are great.

I grew up loving vegetables, but we also ate a lot of junk food. I played outside, but never really worked hard as a kid.
