  • A girl with MS | How i was diagnosed with MS - Part 1
    #AgirlwithMS #LivingWithMS #FemaleKenyanUA-camr
    Continuing from part 1, in this half I share about my experience getting medical assistance and the very first time I was in hospital because of MS.
    At the time I don't think I was scared, just fascinated. I think I have a denial problem which actually helped to keep me calm. It felt like an out of body experience in hospital that I was just observing.
    Apart from the standard MRI I describe the experience of having a needle through the spine. Spoiler alert, I survived 😁
    '
    In the end, I was eventually diagnosed with Relapsing Remitting MS. And by the way, living in Australia with a chronic illness I think is easier than being in Kenya because our healthcare system still has a long way to go.
    I'm 25 and have MS and no matter what I'm not going to let this chronic illness dictate how my life goes. I own my body, not this illness.
    Sharing this especially for the people under 30 with MS, I remember being in the hospital bed looking for information about people around my age with MS. Hopefully this can comfort young people with MS that may see this video. Yes, the period after a chronic illness diagnosis can be scary and you may be angry and confused, but your life is not any less valuable because of this diagnosis. Illness or not, you are still precious, choose life.
    Love,
    Wacera

    I was thinking you are smiling/laughing to keep from crying but at the end I realized you are very brave and you're choosing happy. I'm so sorry for what you're going through at such a young age just keep believing, praying and trusting God He will see you through. Be blessed always.

      I’m sorry to hear about your friends dads condition. Apart from it being difficult on him it must be hard on the family.
      MS is different for everybody and our struggles “vary”.
      At least right now I’m grateful for what I can do and I’m slowly coming to terms with what I can’t.
      Big hugs from Denmark 🤗

      Wacera Murage its nothing serious or personal. Your pretty face with no make up needs Adjusted frames. You must obey the foundations of beauty. You think differently but it shouldn’t make you indifferent.
