How have those in your life been there for you??

Recently I have been looking at my life differently, I believe that when you are given a diagnosis such as the one we all face every day, you have to decide that you are either going to let people kick you while you are down, or stand tall, hold your head high and let the world know that you may not be able to dress yourself today, go to the bathroom without help tomorrow or to remember who you are 10 years from now, but that you deserve to be treated with dignity and respect every single day. You are human just like everyone else on this planet, and you are just as important as the next jerk in line at Target. (I am still trying to decide on shirts that say I'm not drunk I have MS, for when things get bad. I hear that might be helpful, lol.)

So here is what I am asking everyone to do. Share with the group here, some of your best and worst reactions, from anyone, family, friends, strangers & neighbors (some who we wish were strangers) when you told them you had MS. Or maybe just had to "remind" them for one reason or another.

I will reply to myself and go first. Also, does anyone know how or where I can start a blog? Message me don't post it here. Thanks!
