Only 3,467 apologies Anthony? Thatâs nothing. Iâve achieved 7,563 on a really bad day. And thatâs without even kicking the cat! Btw, today Iâve got sticking plaster over my mouth to avoid the necessity for apologies. You should try it. And cos it hurts to rip off, by the time youâve got it off you have more to worry about.
sometimes when I have had multiple drops and I feel another coming on I actively hurl whatever it is, then enjoy the control before feeling guilty about behaving badly⌠Just sayingâŚ
I just read your blog and completely understand the feelings you describe. My brilliant wife does so much for me and all I seem to do ,despite the best intentions is to add to her task list.
Totally annoying, but I would like to think that if the roles were reversed, I would cope nearly as well and graciously as she does.
Yeah. I can. Iâll have to apologise for the rest of my life. Which, if today is anything to go by, will be infinite.
In spite of your northern dialect you have just described another aspect of MS that is likely to push me over the edge. You have to be constantly grateful for everything, whether you are or not. Itâs being British that does it.
Perhaps the UN will give us our own country where etiquette is taboo. There we could wander around without having to hide our catheters. Where wheelchairs & scooters have right of way. You never run out of medication because there is a pharmacy on every street corner. Neurologists are third class citizens (if they arenât already).
An MS Nurse is Prime Minister. Cats have an aversion to wallpaper & curtains. There is a weekly lottery where the most original swearing gets a million quid. You never gain weight and our spouse/friend/carer automatically get the George Cross.
And finally (my favourite word), if itâs a really bad day; green and furry = bad; red and juicy = good.
Don, Sorry. We high-jacked your original topic. Really, sorry. Really really sorry. Thank you for being patient. (sigh)
I like your style Mick. Behaving badly is sometimes exactly whatâs needed to cure the âdumpsâ! I tend to use exceptionally foul language in similar situations but I think I may try throwing objects around instead⌠or maybe as well!!
