Thank you Clint Eastwood for giving me these adjectives. What a great movie that was!

These three words perfectly represent the days that I experience with Multiple Sclerosis.

The Good: this is a day I rarely get but cherish and enjoy when it magically appears. My head is clear, my body doesn’t hurt quite as bad, I am excited to do anything that might come to me. A walk outside, a trip to the store, doing a few scrapbook pages, all in all a normal day for most anyone.

The Bad: these days are not terrible but can be very annoying. I usually drop everything that I attempt to pick up, I may be a bit on the tired side, slightly irritated and avoid conversations. Texting is a blessing for me and all I do accomplish is too much tv or time on the iPad.

The Ugly: these days start out with no strength when getting out of bed, showering is exhausting, a migraine shows up by the end of the day and I usually have one or two fainting spells. 

Several years ago I asked my MS doctor if I would ever get any better. He replied “think about your best day, that is where you might possibly be someday”. At that time I was struggling just walking with a cane and using a wheelchair for longer distances. I appreciate that he was honest with me albeit a little off in his prediction.

So I continue to have hope and pray for good days rather than the bad or ugly.
