I’m trying to make sense of my current extended spell of fatigue. While it may seem pointless to rationalise such a random condition such as MS, I feel the need to give myself some type of end point to my state of drop down drop everything.
The overall generalisation of my formula is open to countless variations of course but here is my conclusion:
DOEY X 4 + (DOEY - 1) = DDDE
That is to say; days of enjoying yourself (or just being active beyond your normal limits) , multiplied by the number of days you suffer for it plus the DOEY minus one equals the number of days od drop down drop everything. I use 4 as an example; yours may be more or less. (Or is it fewer?)
This means that the 6 days of activity las week will affect me for 54 days. Well it won’t because there are so many other factors such as the cumulative effects of constant resting.
But I do believe this is the sort of contrived formulae that our entitlement to benefits is judged on; hence the creation of the points system. It is also responsible for government recommended guidelines for alcohol, fruit, vegetables and salt consumption. Like my own formula, it’s very much boffin driven.
Hey Steve, ever thought about studying algebra to open the doors to academia.
Someone explained to me, that if a person with severe MS can become wealthy. They can raise the funds to find a cure by themselves & retire in the Mediterranean on their yacht. That’s the kind of advice I get when having a bad day. Nothing better than mental torment to help with a terminal disease that never lets go & drags us down each day.
Just reading an article on Mark Zuotabergs new glasses that do away with smart phones & TV’s. A 10p AP that turns any flat surface into a media workbench. With the Internet as your informational library. Accessing any knowledge that is freely available to fix problems. Some people believe this hype.
I have an encyclopaedia that says we’ll all be in space ships by 2000 with all diseases cured. What happened there?
Press a button, like in Fifth Element & a roast chicken appears.
We exist in a Fictional world, with non fictional problems.
The book title is, Bullshite for believers. Laminated, with gold leaf lettering, for extra authenticity.
Keep fighting the beast dude & ignore the ignorant. Beethoven wrote the 7th symphony in a kayak, on an iPad.
It makes more sense than the brain dead drunk that called me at 1:00 AM asking for a loan to pay a gas bill.

Roses were red & violets were blue. Now nobody has a clue. Let’s ask Foo man Chew. He’s not dead after all.
Steve, Maths was never one of my strengths but I can see where you are going with this one. I feel like a mobile phone with only 10 % battery power left , that is on my best day recently I’ve been affected by a huge emotional out put …I always describe it as “pretending to be normal” I’m not sure who I’m trying to fool. Last week me and Frazer were at planning / crisis meeting with the psychologists and soial workers for my grown up Autistic daughter. Ever since I’ve been completely wrecked …no energy and scared to venture far. On Sunday I ended up crying in public, well at my church …I can’t even think …"I’ll never see them again "…that’s how it gets me. Fraser’s so embarrassed he he’s got a mad women for an owner. Michelle and Frazer xx
Its a long time since I was at school…but I read it twice and persevered and eventually understood it…with bad brain drain today I was quite pleased with myself!
Michelle sorry to hear this about your daughter,was hoping things had improved a bit for you.I really hope things will geta bit easier.You must be so worn out with it all,i hope you can get some rest.Dont worry about crying in public,people will understand with all thet you are going thru just now (((((((((((((hugs))))))))))
Thanks Jackie, they had to call a crisis meeting today and we are meeting with them again tomorrow. Sorry Steve not meant to gate crash your message. You are always brilliant at telling things as they really are Steve and you always add a sense of humour, mine has disappeared recently. Michelle and Frazer
I am sorry to hear things are difficult for you all at the moment, I do so hope they sort everything quickly, you could well do without extra stress.
Keep your chin up Hunni, thinking of you (((hugs)))
Sorrry to butt in Steve on your post, but I have been quiet for a little while, and had not realised Michelle had added problems than normal, and just wanted to let her know I was thinking of her.
