I have MS. I’ve been dealing with symptoms for 12 years. Fighting it for 7, as of today. This morning I awoke to @selmablair, a fellow fighter, and someone who is so open and honest about her disease. I always try to be so eloquent when I speak about mine. I think one day I’ll find the right combination of words that will describe how isolating this disease can feel. Standing in a crowded room and feeling your whole body tingle from the inside, wanting to just lay down on the floor because I’m just so tired, or wanting to feel my left hand again. MS is a war waged on the inside of us. My body attacks my body. How can I not feel alone and isolated in that? So today, I’m honor of battle with MS, I’m showing you my mistakes, my floundering, me failing to fulfill my egocentric need to be the person who can explain this. I live with MS. I face it multiple times a day, and while I never admit that I’m afraid... I certainly am. I certainly am. ❤️ to all of my fellow fighters. #FuckMS https://www.instagram.com/p/B8cFsgDnX5U/?igshid=i6ipm7ash0gp
