MS and Christmas

There are the parts of Christmas I love, like time with family, winter walks, twinkling lights and evenings by a cosy fire. But the parts I like don’t always gel well with my MS. As a result, Christmas can turn into something of a marathon for me and excitement tends to quickly give way to dread when I realise there is no way my body will cope with all the festivities.

MS and Fatigue

Let me share an incident that happened to me on a Luas recently. I was lucky enough to have nabbed the last available seat on a packed tram at rush hour in Dublin. I noticed an older lady standing beside me and I could nearly predict the scene that unfolded before my eyes. A Good Samaritan noticed that this older passenger needed a seat and looked straight in my direction. She asked me to give up my seat for somebody more deserving and I replied no. The Good Samaritan proceeded to shout all over the Luas about my lack of common decency and how people these days have no manners or respect. Outwardly I looked ok, this woman had no idea that I had been enduring MS fatigue since the moment I had woken up that day.

Update to National Conference

We have made a slight change to the agenda for our upcoming virtual conference. Dr Guido Guinti Garcia will be presenting from 4:30 – 5:30 rather than during the parallel sessions as previously stated.

The title of his presentation is: Involving people with MS to design digital health tools for fatigue: the More Stamina Case. If you still need to register for the National Conference you can do so here.
