As I was choosing a quote for this week, I read this one several times until I realized that the word is was spelled as us. Well shoot, I decided to use it anyway because I really like the message.

I have never thought that my body could fight for me without me consciously thinking about it. Our bodies have an amazing capacity to heal without any help from me. The medical plan since being diagnosed with MS has always been the collaboration of many professionals and myself. Which medicine, how much PT, another opinion, how hard and often do I pray for healing. When all is said and done, it is not really up to me. Sure I have opinions and choices to make, but the plan was already set in motion long before I thought or did anything about my illness. 

I was given free will and I will continue to fight Multiple Sclerosis whether it improves or not, because my maker also gave me strength and perseverance.
