Don't Forget

A few weeks ago, I began emailing friends and family asking people to join my Walk MS team and or donate to help find a cure.

The response has been overwhelming, to say the least. I knew people loved me, but I didn't realize just how much.

But I thought has been bouncing in my head lately, one I can't seem to shake.

"I hope people don't forget."

I don't want people to forget my battle. I say that with caution because I don't want people to forget but I don't want them to feel sorry for me.

I'm newly diagnosed so there is still a shock value when people find out. Five or six years down the road, I don't want what I have to becoming, well I'm not sure how to say it. I want their support now and years down the road. I guess I hope people don't get sick of supporting me.

So my hope is that a cure is found soon. If a cure is not found soon, then I hope people will remember me and will remember to pray for me and my family. Every one's life will go back to normal after October 11, but I will still have MS.
