Some of you will know that I have been having a really uncertain time with my health recently.
Back in June, I went blind in my left eye. After electrodes in my eye, countless questions about tingling in my legs and a brain scan I was told in September that I might have MS.
After every blood test imaginable, two further MRI scans, a meeting with a neurologist and A LOT of waiting, on Thursday I was diagnosed with relapsing remitting MS. And do you know what? I’m OK. I’m no different to Wednesday. Or May last year before I went blind.
That doesn’t mean to say that I’ve not got a tough period of time ahead of me whilst I come to terms with it. But I’ll get through it.
I might have MS, but it sure as hell won’t be having me.
Oh bless you! You definitely have the right mindset because times will get tough and you need that mind to get you through. It’s a shock at first but I just thought that It could have been worse so still felt grateful! It might not be the life you planned ahead but it’s still your life and you have control, it will make you stronger than ever!! Take care x x
