If you knew MS was in your future, would you have been able to plan for it ?
Posted by debi-wilson on February 12, 2019 at 11:19 amIt is said that “Hindsight is 20/20.” If you knew then what you know now, could you have planned for MS?

All future planning changes often with all the variables. If I knew then what I know now, I would have done a whole lot of things different lol…One thing I would have told my younger self would have been “Aim Higher and Don’t Settle and Don’t sell your house for an overseas love connection that didn’t work out”. Yes, I have messed up more than once, only to find myself poor and without my own home with PPMS. Life looks better from space.

Tricky question as in the past I didn’t really know what MS was all about, now of course I know. It was just a word, or abbreviated word, that I knew everyone feared the illness, I never delved in any further as to why.
If we knew it was coming could we have done things – planned things any other way? I dont think so. I doubt I would have done things any different because even if I knew MS was coming I wouldn’t have thought it was that bad, of course now I know it is, and that it is worse than bad, in-fact MS is our worst nightmare come true…

In hindsight the only thing I can think of that I would have done different, or more of, when I had the ability to have done so is, I would have walked my then three dogs a whole lot more than I did walk them, back in my able bodied striding out days.
