Guest guest Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 As someone in a wheelchair I don't see the deacon's comments as depressing, just as realistic. It does take a few years to get used to the new you (however large or slight the difference) but as, like MS itself, it takes time, so isn't a problem. Now I can hardly remember what it was like before MS. Our bodies got us into this mess, they can get us out, you just need to find the key for your particular case, patience and positive thoughts.

If someone is not currently disabled, there is no reason to assume s/he will become so! If someone *is* currently disabled, there is no reason to assume s/he can't recover! The course of the disease, and whether it's possible to halt it in its tracks, is an individual thing.
