Sarah:
But they haven’t really, I don’t think they have a full grasp of it yet, but my hope is that since they have been living with it and I have been open with it that it’s not going to be that difficult for them to incorporate into their lives when they are little bit older. I think honesty is the best policy. They help me give my shot, and when I was raising money to do the MS Walk last year, my daughter went and raided my husband’s coin jar and gave me a bunch of pennies and said, “Here, these are to help other people with MS.”
So she understands that there are a lot of people living with this and who are worse off than I am. She has been to events where she has seen people in wheelchairs and with assist dogs or walkers, and she asked me, “When are you going to get one?” And I said, “I don’t know,” and she said, “Well, can I have a ride when you do?” So trying to make this as least scary as possible for them but still being honest.
