Yes your nasty little (not really so little) MS acquaintance stole some of your options, but youe still have some, and maybe even some new ones, yes? How exciting the way you develop new options and opportunities anyway. Hmm. Impressive.
I enjoy your optimistic moments. And yes, you can write. luv ya Amy.
Amy, great post! I couldn't agree more. Although my 20s were spared, I wa diagnosed at 30, just when I was getting my s**t together. I got rid of a miserable, emotionally absent and abusive husband and replaced him with MS (in more ways than one-- I got my graduate degree, too!). I definitely like this version of me, but yeah, I think I can take it from here without MS.... Fingers and toes crossed that we'll see a cure. I work out 6 days/week (on a good week!) to be ready for a cure when it comes....
