after many years, i was finally diagnosed with MS, and apparently, it had started WAY earlier in my life, but i just ignored it.
so being old now, pain is just something i look forward to every day. no big deal anymore.
it has also been noted by someone else's response, my motto for years has been : "no matter how bad i have it, there is someone out there that has it worse !"
i just play the cards that were dealt, and hope i can get my junk to at least run around the block before i croak !
someone stopped by this past summer and asked what i was doing. i told him : "i'm getting ready for the estate sale !" biggrin

As you know we both struggle with Multiple Sclerosis , it all started in my 20's also, took till 49 to find out what was really wrong with me, I worked my a$$ off as a mechanic until I was 50, had to retire early, building my 68 Charger has kept me going, giving me a purpose to keep going, am very slow getting things done on it , some days I can work for a couple of hours some days I cant even move, it is what it is, LOL, all that said I am very grateful for my life & the things I have gotten to do,,,, NOT done yet smile
