Here are some funny and some sad reflections on living with MS. Appologies to anyone who has read these before.
your 4 year old kicks your tail in the memory game
your 4 yr old kicks you anywhere THEY wanna
one of your students tapes paper to the overhead light and you think that you've forgotten how to operate the stupid thing!
when you refer to swallowing a pill as swallowing a pillow...
when your daughter corrects the spelling in a note to her teacher.
When the eye Dr tells you to turn your eyes to the right and you turn left
you get excited when the weatherman says to expect unseasonably cold weather...
When you show up ready to work at your job from 4 years ago instead of your current job and don't realize that you are in the wrong place until after you enter the front door.
When your grandbabies walk better then you & make it to the potty faster
When your 90 year old relative offers you their walker because..."you need it more that me honey"
when your 4 year old helps you tie your shoes
when your father beats you to the car after he has had hip replacement surgery and he is still on crutches....
When you repeatedly try to unlock a car with your keyless entry, and it is not your car.
When your dog has to remind you it is time to FEED her.
When your 83 year old Mom asks if she can take YOU to the doctor
When you go to bed in your day clothes because you are too tired to change clothes.
When you have just taken a pee and decide not to flush the toilet because you will be back again in 10 mins.
When you get up in the middle of the night to go pee and end up in your bedroom closet wondering why you can't get the d#*n door open
when your 9 year old tucks you in for a bed.
...when you cheer because you were able to pull your pants down b4 you started peeing..this time
When you go to the cupboard to get a cup and notice the milk is in there, so you yell, "who put the milk in the cupboard?" and no one is home!
When you map out the way you drive to work or anywhere based on the number of public restrooms available on the route
your mum seeks advice about social security from you
(love this one!!!) you fall into a sidewalk sale clothing rack and knock it and the rack next to it over and get lost in the clothing
when you are trying the key on the next apartment and start swearing at the lock and the people inside come and ask you if you need help? then realize you are at the wrong door
When you show up to parent teacher conference a week late
When you go to the grocery store, turn around and realize that you're lost...I mean absolutely no idea where you are... and have to call your 16yr old daughter to come find you
when you trip over grout lines
when you invite guests to sit on the cake while you serve the couch

when you pay a bill twice because you don't remember paying it
when your teenager thanks YOU for doing some cooking and cleaning
