Guest guest Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 My Story"You have MS", the doctor said.Those words echo inside my head.My first concern, "Are my kids at risk?"Felt like I've been punched by a MonSters fist.Then terror, anger, & grief,Words can't express, beyond belief.Where did this come from? How can it be?This doesn't run in my family!!!Everything in my life changed that day.The person I was slowly began to fade away.The MonSter is an evil that climbs into your brain,Things are hard to understand, even harder to explain.My aches & pains are many, my memory is poor, my life is like a state of total confusion.Though I know what they tell me is the truth, I'd like to believe it's all a grand illusion.So many pills every day, even more at night just to sleep.The fear, frustration, & heartache I feel, it cuts so deep.Noises & words come into my mind, they swirl around,make no sense, then gone, nowhere to find.My new life will change as the seasons do.I rely on my family & friends to help me through.I will keep fighting & never give in.I refuse to let this MonSter win!! 12/2/07Peg Fall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 {{{Peggy}}} This is a beautiful poem. I really enjoyed it. If you don't mind, could I share this with my dad? I can't get him to understand what I'm going through, and if he saw that I wasn't the only one, maybe...just maybe, he might finally "get it". Thank you, sis... Love and blessings...

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 Thanks Val, Of course you can!! I can't guarantee it will make a difference, I showed it to my family, well my hubby and daughter and pretty much got blank stares. I hope your Dad gives you a better reaction!!!

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 Yeah, I know what you mean. I've written a bunch of poems about MS and showed them to my family. I get the same response as you. But, I'm hoping that if my dad see's that there are others out there going through what I'm going through, he may for a moment pull his head out of the sand and realize that I'm not making all of this up. The last time I spoke with him, he more or less told me that what I really need to do is just work through it. Uhhh, yeah...right daddy. Duhhh, now why didn't I think of that. <rolling eyes> Thanks a lot Peggy! Liftining you in prayer, Val wrote: Thanks Val,Of course you can!!
