- MS = Scheduling my day around my fatigue.
- MS = Digging a little deeper into my memory files to find the right thought or word and hoping I find it.
- MS = Living my life my way regardless of MS.
- MS = Constantly telling those around me who know about my MS that I'm doing OK when they ask with puppy dog eyes, "How are you doing?"
- MS = Lots of notes posted on my computer, refrigerator, bathroom mirror, in my car, etc.
March 14-20, 2011, is MS Awareness Week. This is a week recognized by Arkansas' Governor Mike Beebe. The challenge anyone with a Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis has is educating employers, family and friends. You can use this special week to inform and educate those who are a part of our lives and the general public. An MS diagnosis just means we have to make changes to the way we live, but not our lives. Here is the MS Awareness Campaign website that can give you ideas about what you can contribute to MS Awareness week:
