I know it must get on your nerves, but at least we still live in a world where people care enough to ASK. Please just remember to breathe, ok?

-- If one more asks me if "I'm Ok"...Terri

If one more asks me if "I'm Ok"??

I mean give me a break no wonder I like my isolation...Grrrrrrrrrr!!

I went for a short walk in my neighborhood...Enough..sigh!!!

Yes, I walk Flippen slow but I'm trying right?

Until I'm given meds to help this when I go to Jefferson Hosp. to see the neuro specialist??

2 cars slowed down to ask me "Are you Ok?

Bad enough I'm to youngest in a neighborhood (55 and over) and being I'm 52 and homeowners assoc.. Ok' d Me cuz they have to be able to say they don't discriminate.

I'm supposed to just smile and answer their questions and tell them I have MS and "exceptions" proud of myself for getting to that part in my so called recovery.

Now I'm going to sit at my PC and lick my wounds. At least no-one knows how slow my typing is..grrrrr!!!!

Many Healing Hugs, Terri

You need to make up some good answers to amuse yourself.

For instance my current favorite is " I'm practicing for when the zombie

apocalypse comes. They'll never notice me! "

I totally understand how annoying this can be. But, I try to smile and answer the question patiently. I remind myself that at least there are people concerned enough to ask.

One situation that frustrates me is a guy at my health club who will ask "So, are you going to be done using a cane soon?" He's a friendly man and means well. But, I just want to yell: "Sure, if you or someone else comes up with a freakin' cure!"Dan U dao_nguu@...

I hear you. Best one I've ever heard was the man thinking he was funny was " Is

that vodka in that water bottle? "

To Me it was very embarassing. At that time I was alot healthier and was

employed and a " Personal trainer at the YMCA "

Now looking back that one was funny:)

I had someone say "Are you STILL using that cane?" I laughed and said "Yep, because I STILL have MS."hugs SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.

With you on this one, Dan. It's like everyone thinks a cane is a fashion

accessory since " Dr House " . Humph.

I never used a cane, couldn't get the hang of it, so I used a decorated 5' tall wooden staff, got SO many people just smile at me (think = yoda) or comment how they liked it.

Heh. Following the supernatural theme, you could reply with " No, it's the

blood of the last guy who annoyed me " ... ;-)

Teri,…..i had someone ask me why I was limping [back in the days when I could walk without help], and it embarrassed me to say I had MS, so I told them it was an old war injury. I’ve never been in the military, but for some reason it sounded better to say that instead of MS.
