You Can't Judge a Book by it's Cover

MS is just like the saying..."You can't judge a book by it's Cover." My favorite thing that people say is, "You don't look like you have MS." I loove that! I hope to NEVER look like a have this disease. However, sometimes you want to say in return, "If you only knew how I feel." But since I do not like to bring on the negative I of course never say that but do quite often feel that. MS is a painful disease at times. Sometimes you body just hurts and aches all over. Sometimes something is numb, something tingles, you feel weak, and you just don't feel right. There are times I can not figure out what it wrong but just say, something doesn't feel right. It is then that you have to take caution and not overdue it. There is something going on inside, but it can be taken care of if not gone unnoticed. And no one would ever know this is going on with your body because you look fine from the outside (depending on the symptom). With that said though, that is when the disease can make you feel in a way "lonely." No one really knows except you with the MS what is going on inside your body. And not to be mean, but for those who don't have MS, no one can really understand what it's like or feels either. That is kind of lonely then too. I have learned to talk about it and not keep it all in. Well I am trying to work on that. But at the end of the day, as long as I can walk, talk, and function, even if it is in a different way than others, then I am happy!! Life is good then!
