Sometimes Bad, er, “negative”. Yin & Yang. Can’t have one w/o the other. The World goes around. Friends & Family die of diseases I hope I don’t get. #MultipleSclerosis is a “dreaded” diagnosis. Revealing responses vary from Speechless German is better: Sprachlos-Absence of Speech
Bad: no cure, too many treatments to choose from. What were You offered today?

Education is a big part. Empathy doesn’t hurt. I think #pwMS are wise to share among themselves: symptoms, pitfalls, what helps/harms, treatment, diagnosis, assessment. Non #MultipleSclerosis People who Love You cannot understand what You go Through. Try to give them good info 💚
I would point them to website/twitter for @shiftms @mssociety @GavinGiovannoni @Brandon_Beaber @AaronBosterMD @drbarrysinger No reason to reinvent the wheel, so much information here. Fear is based partly in Not knowing What to Expect. Lay out a solid plan with detours possible.
Bumps in the Road shouldn’t be a sign of Failure, but a Detour. Don’t ever beat Yourself up. Don’t waste breath on loved one who can’t hear you. They can go into denial/depression too. It’s important for them to Know-it’s Normal. Sucks but that’s the MonSter I’m referring to 🐉
