World MS Day

I hope to bring a greater awareness to those who don’t understand MS. I was a live wire just days before I took ill. I remember dancing the night away at a Christmas function weeks before. Then suddenly I was numb and started seeing doubles on my right side. Within weeks I was tested in more ways than I had been tested all of my life and so I was diagnosed. Mr. Superman was exposed to his Kryptonite and my Doctors are still confused. Perhaps we all need to learn more.

 

World MS Day

We spend money indiscriminately

On fancy homes, cars, clothes and jewelry

Refusing to give to meaningful research

Leaving many sufferers in an abysmal lurch

Disease troubles millions in various ways

Multiple Sclerosis is but one with  alarming dismays

Some sufferers succumb to its will very early

Don’t understand it’s true impact on our society

All I know is that I too was fit and strong

Yesterday I was superb now today I barely get along
