I have wanted to pose this question for awhile. My mother had a horrible course of M.S. and was no longer living by the age I am now, while I seem to still be passing at the You Look So good phase. Is this dumb luck, or did her example make me try (?) that much harder to stay in the fight? While Mom was practically a saint (religious, a virgin until she married, abstained from booze, drugs, cigarettes, etc.), I was...well, not a saint!
Then you have Richard Pryor and Montel Willams. Could anybody believe they both had/have the same disease?
Is it a matter of "I am ready for a cane, W/C, bed, etc." OR as crappified as I feel, I can still fight this thing for another minute, hour, day, month, year, etc.?"
This is not, by any means, a judgmental post but an honest question seeking opinions of persons walking in the shoes of Multiple Sclerosis.
Thank you in advance for your replies.
