I finally put this on my car. I had it made about six months ago after I ran my very half marathon. I never put it on the car. I put it in on hanging inbox, and looked at it everyday, but never put it on the car.
I'm not shy about talking about my M.S., but putting this on my car is an advertisement in a way. I wasn't ready to deal with being that open about my diagnosis. I also didn't want to come off as some uber motivational person who can "do anything she sets her mind to and you should to", because that is not me. I do want people to know M.S. doesn't have to stop you from doing things. It may alter how you go about achieving them, but it shouldn't be the reason you don't even try. I wanted to try and see if I could do it so I did. Will I ever run another half marathon? Probably not, but not because of M.S., because I just really didn't enjoy the training process. The constant worry that I was going to have relapse was always in the back of my mind. It was simply to much pressure for me. I love to run shorter races, 5k, 10k, and I will stick with those.
Multiple Sclerosis can't stop me from living my life. I hope it doesn't stop you either.
