If you have trouble walking, get some lightweight slippers which grip the floor and don't flop off. I hate to say this, but “sensible shoes” are called for. Avoid flip-flops and clogs.
Pen

Air Conditioning

Magnifying Reading Glasses

There are many issues that come with multiple sclerosis which are beyond our control, but most of us can find ways to improve our situation. Don't be afraid to admit that you need help. Then do something about it. You'll be glad you did!
