Re: MS and menopause

For sure we do! Menopause, pregnancy, menstruation, and all that
"female" stuff, we soldier on through. (And a THWACK upside the head to
any male who thinks menstruation is no big deal! Especially the
doctors I've heard about!) We have to pretend that everything is OK,
even when it's not. Otherwise, we'd add fuel to that old "women can't"
fire.

Thanks for your concerns about me. MS is the very devil, and it's
kicking me again. . .but I WILL get back up again.
