Good Visual for Explaining MS to Others
This is a good visual for explaining MS and its effects on our bodies to those who don't have it:

That's Excellent. Thanks Kitty.
Yes, she does look good. But isn't that something that we often hear as well? "You look so good." :D With love, Erika |

I sent the diagram with the explanations on each symptom to my kids. My oldest son called me last night and said he had looked at it and was asking me if I had all those symptoms. I told him that I had most of them but not usually all at the same time.
When my kids ask "how are you feeling today?" I usually say "fine" or "pretty good". I usually don't specify which symptom is bothering me on that particular day. There's nothing anyone can do about it and I don't want to be perceived as whiny or a complainer. Plus, I've learned to ignore most of the aggravating symptoms.....they happen so much they've become my new normal! :rolleyes: As parents we tend to play down sickness or injury when talking to our kids. It's just human nature to want to protect those dearest to you. At a minimum I hope it just reinforces to them that just because they can't see my disability at first glance it's still there and just because I don't talk about it all the time I'm still dealing with it in my own way. I think it's made them more compassionate individuals. :) |
Great posts Kelly, Thanks..:)

My police officer son sent me this picture this morning. He said he stopped traffic in order to escort this little guy out of the road and to a safe place in the woods. :circlelove: |
