I guess the most important thing I have learned is to listen to my body not to well meaning family and friends. They want to understand and to help but they cannot know how you feel. Only you and people like you can really understand. They see you out and about one day and the next day you're flat on your back. There is no way they can really understand it. The best thing to do is to explain that you have good days and bad days. Also, a positive attitude of "I can do this" and a smile on your face helps you and your loved ones. It is not good for you to lament on your condition. Remember, it is a condition, not you. You are still who you always were as long as you stay positive. Best of luck to all and keep smiling.
