I Can’t Do It Alone
I was diagnosed in 2002. I did everything I could to keep working. When I could no longer do tasks such as keyboarding, I found I should have listened to my neurologist and my spouse long before. I’ve learned that I wasn’t being humble and was going beyond my limitations, which is modesty. Once I acknowledged this fact, I began to see that I can’t do it alone. So with faith in our creator and help from my husband and doctor who were trying to help my quality of life, I began using a rollator (walker with wheels) and slowed down. It has given me a lot less bruises both externally and to my pride. I learned I need help. There is no shame in that. We cannot control what MS does. So with dignity, I face this, but I’m never alone in my struggle.
