My brother and i sometimes worry if out mother will still be here to see us succeed in life, or will be able to see her grandchildren be born and grow up. Those things make me feel down and sometimes depressed. I usually wouldn't share this kind of information. I don't talk about this with my friends or my father because ti can get to emotional and i don't like thinking about at times but i do.

Although my mother has this illness thats not curable, she is a happy woman. Just because you are sick does not mean you have to be sad and lonely. My parents have been married for 24 years and are happy. My father takes my mother out to eat and shopping all the time. He takes her to have her own beauty day every week end.
My mother went from driving her own car to loosing her driving privlages. My father had to take her places because her mind would wonder sometimes and her strength was getting weaker. she actually went from needing help when she walked to needing a wheel chair. My mother was completely unable to walk.
Experience
Having a mother that has this disease isnt the easiest thing. Growing up i couldnt spend as much time with my mom like most daughters and mothers because of the illness. Every year i got older , the sicker she had got. Her having this dieases really had a big affect on me, but i didnt let it show.
Personal Experience
My mother has MS, and she has had it for 21 years. After i was born she found out that she was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. She was told that if she had any more children she could die.

Ability to have Children
Depending on what stage a person is on, depends on if they are able to have children. if a woman get pregnants it can be really stressful on there body during labor. The strain on the body and can be too much for them and they can get really weak or sometimes even die. The woman would have to talk to there doctor abotu the precautions of getting pregnant.

Epidemic
Most paitents with the disease will end up in a wheel chair,because they loose almost all of their strength in there joints and loose balance of most of their body. This disease is really becoming epidemic all around and shold be notice more often. it shouldnt be taken for grantred because anyone can have it and not realize it until later in their life.
Affordable Medicine and Cure
Multiple Sclerosis has no cure, the disease gets worser every year. depending on the person medication and depends on how the disease can effect them. A lot of people cant afford the best medicine and they have to settle with what they can afford and that also predicts on how weell aperson with the illnes will do.
Symptoms
The only symptoms of multiple sclerosis would be lack of balance, if you are feeling fatigue, if you are feeling your vision is going in and out and sometimes nummbness throughout your body.The bad thing about having these symptoms is that when you get test done at the doctor most of the time it comes up negative so its hard for the doctors to diagnose youor tell you whats going on.
