When something of an affliction happens to you, you either let it defeat you, or you defeat it.
- Rousseau
Or you learn to work around the obstacle, if it is an incurable disease like M.S. that is ongoing and causes systematically more disability.
It is important to take an attitude of adapting and thriving in spite of the disease.
Leave the cure to the scientists and manage your life with the attitude that you can deal with the problems created by the disease.
You will probably need to give up some activities,like the balance beam (LOL) and other athletic pursuits that require balance, strength or require being on your feet for too long.
Focus on what you are still capable of doing and not on what you have lost.
Purpose:
You have -- within you -- the fuel to thrive and to flourish,
and to leave this world in better shape than you found it.
Sometimes you tap into this fuel – other times you don’t.
But the sad fact is that most people have no idea
how to tap into this fuel or even recognize it when they do.
Where is this fuel within you?
You tap into it whenever you feel energized and excited by new ideas.
You tap into it whenever you feel at one with your surroundings, at peace.
You tap into it whenever you feel playful, creative, or silly.
You tap into it whenever you feel your soul stirred by the sheer beauty of existence.
You tap into it whenever you feel connected to others and loved.
In short, you tap into it whenever positive emotions resonate within you.
