a grumpy person?

Patti was in an odd kind of mood Sunday, repeatedly claiming she was a grumpy person. Always has been and so on … This is actually the furthest thing from the truth.

We had picked her up for dinner at her parent’s home. In theory a multiple opportunity to get out, get some non-institutional food, visit with family, and play some games.

Though her mood did improve a bit, by the return trip she had slipped back into a full blown funk plus reported being super tired.

It was an hour past her preferred bed time. An hour to an able bodied person is an hour. With MS fatigue it can seem exponential.

People with MS can have bad days like anyone else regardless of MS. Living with MS in the family you learn not to micromanage.

  1. You are such a wonderful person and all I can do is send you {{{{{Hugs}}}}}.  I pray that everyone who finds themselves in a caregiving situation finds your journal.  You are a God send.

    Send my love to Patti.
