How do you manage the holidays?

Well don't do much with my family because they don't bother with me the rest of the year. It makes me sad that they and my friends seem to have forgot me.And one member of my family says that it was my doing,but it wasn't .

I learned a couple of years ago that the best way to manage my MS during the holidays is to take my time preparing for them. I start a minimum of two weeks in advance with the baking, wrapping and decorating. That way, I can stop and rest when I feel the need to. It may take me longer to get things done, but at least I don't wear myself totally out so I can't enjoy my family and friends.

MS Has Changed My Life Complelely, I'm Depression, I lost most of my hair, I can't to the things that I could before, I'm in pain I take it day by day and by BABY steps, I'm Very moody , I fighting this MS everyday and I will keep fighting until they find a cure! I keep Believing, And keeping Hope and FAITH and Prayers. Some days I want to give up. Because I get tired of My MS .

No one had any answers for me. I didn’t know what to do. I wanted to drive off of a bridge so that my family would be spared this disease. Of course I didn’t do that. I was so afraid and I made a lot of bad decisions at that time. I thought I would go crazy.
Maybe I did a little.....
