Guest guest Posted May 17, 2006 Report Share Posted May 17, 2006 I think this would apply to most people, not just people with MS. I think when we are in groups like this one we tend to think the whole world knows about diet and supplements and healtier lifestyles. Well I live in a really healthy city per captita, but let me tell you its still a definate minority to want to eat healthy. I am looked at like some kind of freak and I am not vegetarian or vegan. So people are going to take alot more time to come around to thinking about what they do affects how they feel. The reason people are looking to doctors for the answer is because we have lived this way most our life, get sick, get pill, get well. Chronic illness is not like this and people will have to wake up to this fact or die young.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 I would like to see a survey on the survival of those with MS! Death is the final outcome of all life. Let's here some stories of how people with MS have LIVED their lives, successfully, comfortably and without intense daily struggle and pain. Quality of life is more important than quantity, isn't it? > > > > > > http://www.nationmaster.com/graph-T/mor_mul_scl_percap > > > > - > > > --------------------------------- Blab-away for as little as 1¢/min.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Hi Gill, I remember that group, its too bad people just won't dare to think outside the doctor and drug box alittle. So glad to hear you are still getting better every day, its a journey that we have to have patience for. Some people will get results quickly when changing lifestyles and others much more slowly but the direction is always toward health instead of further into disease. With groups like this and continuing education, we can change those statistics! Gill Butts wrote: > > That is so true Roe.
