Guest guest Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 You ought to see my calendar! Each day has something on it that I would like to get accomplished. There are very few of those chores that are marked off in any one month. I get so mad when I want to do something and my body won't allow me! Now my mind is starting to cheat me! I try and explain that even to a close friend and they have to pitch in that they forget things too. I don't just simply forget one or two things, I lose them. When you forget, you can be reminded. When you lose it, it's as if it was never there to begin with. Everyone forgets things. I get that. But not everyone loses things in their head. My calendar and my note pad are two of my best friends!utzdana@... wrote: Yes, fatigue is one of the hardest symptoms to convey to others. It's a good example of the maxim: "People don't get (ie, understand) MS until they get (ie, contract) it." If I tell someone I get fatigued, they'll say "I get tired, too." Maybe they're trying to be sympathetic when they say that. But, they just don't get it. I'll be doing chores and then just have to sit and watch TV to get my energy back. Or, if I have to do some task I have to plan it out and pace my time. --Dana F. Utz utzdanacomcast (DOT) net https://home.comcast.net/~utzdana/ Never miss a thing. Make Yahoo your homepage.
