I completely agree Kelly. If someone in my family has been ill I've done everything in my power to find out about the disease\condition. It just ****** me off when people can't be bothered to even find out the basics! Argh! Yea, I'm using the p word, but it could be much worse . Oh, by the way, I'm sooo glad you're not wallowing in your own filth, ROTFL!

Default explanation

I have to share something really funny that happened when I tried to share a website with a friend that wanted information on MS.

For longer than long, I have not visited MultipleSclerosisSucks.com

So I told her to go to MSSucks.com

Memory lapse on the name of the site.

oops...wrong site. She got back to me and told me that although the site may have been informative, she did not really think that it explained MS at all.

The wrong site was...ahem...x-rated.

So if you get tired of explaining, you can always tell them where to go...

Isn't that the truth!!

I have given her that website before - and I think she said she has visited it but I've given it to so many people I can't remember if it was her that said that or not.

Maybe I'll email the website address to her again....hopefully she'll take the hint.

Wow - it must be something in the water in Georgia this week, huh? I'm having the same problems as you are, Kelly! This weekend is a family visit (150+ miles of driving two days in a row), and I have begged to have it rescheduled, as we have a busy week next week, and it's hot as hades here right now...NOPE.

I've given up explaining things to my IL's...they don't try to understand, so they just can be left out of things. My MIL's favorite phrase has turned into "do you need to take a nap?" - like that helps everything. No, I don't need a nap - I don't remember naps helping when my right side goes numb, do you?

My husband even explained that I'm having some problems with my "day-after-Avonex" stuff - still nothing. Guess we're in for a fun weekend. What's it going to be...something like 150 degrees?

BTW - if you want to carpool to go "kick some Tanya" I'm right down the road...LOL...

Sounds good to me!!! Cindy is meeting us there....so we'll all take turns whippin' Tanya into shape.

The nerve of her.....laying out in the sun. I'd hate to see what I'd be like if I laid out in this scorching Georgia sun! Not only would I be red as a lobster but I'd still be layin' out there now 'cos I wouldn't be able to get up!!

I'm sorry your in-laws are so non-understanding. I don't know how mine would react to my illness as I got this crappy disease after they were not in my life anymore. It's just as well....less people to explain things to (over and over).

I hope your trip goes well and you can let someone else do the driving. What part of GA do you live in? I'm in North Georgia...Gwinnett County.

Take care!
