if they have MS?
Upon leaving a store yesterday I saw a woman approaching and stopped to allow her to pass. She had a cane and her arm was in the "broken wing" pose... my mind immediately went "she has MS." Realizing I was staring right at her I quickly said something about the nice day and hoping she was enjoying it. She smiled and responded in kind, and passed slowly, quite hobbled.
I was thisclose to saying "May I ask you a question? Is MS the cause of your disability?"
No one knows of my MS, although another MSer could take an intelligent guess after observing my gait.... and I don't know how I would feel or respond. Thoughts?
