It happened. Just a couple of weeks ago.
I had my first “MS fall.”
It happened so fast, I couldn’t even process. And it wasn’t until later in the evening — when the full impact of what {literally} went down hit me — that I cried.
I had just gotten a much-needed-toe-painting job done when I decided to take the glamorous paper toweling out from between my toes.
Really, I could’ve handled it myself. But the ever-helpful Jasmine said she’d do it for me.
So I raised a foot to her and the mere seconds following are now somewhat of a blur … except for the large and tender bruise on my right forearm … and my ego.
When I raised my foot, I immediately lost my balance and started going down … fast!
Only it was like slow motion as I grabbed at everything in my path to help break my fall … kinda like when you’re doing the back stroke in mid-air? Out of the water?
That was me.
Until I hit the ground.
Honestly, I’m a bit embarrassed to share this. It’s like admitting something that you just don’t want to be true, you know? Like sometimes it’s better to stay in denial?
But. Being that today is World MS Day, I decided to share my story and continue to raise awareness. Document my journey and share the ups and downs of living with Multiple Sclerosis.
Do you know someone living with MS? Or for that matter — any chronic health disorder? Is there something you could do to reach out and encourage them today? Is there a way you could raise awareness to what they might be suffering with?
Please believe me, a note of encouragement or acknowledgement will go a long way!
