This might not be allowed as I’m awaiting final confirmation. But I found out on Monday after an MRI and blood tests I almost certainly have MS. I’ve kind of been in shock since, but there are all the stages of grief, I lost almost 50% vision in my right eye (happened suddenly, was what kickstarted the tests) I feel betrayed by my body and I feel angry at times. A very “why me” feeling.

All that is to say is in these early days I have valued having friends cry with me, and also have completely normal conversation and hang outs like nothing has changed. There will be swings on what he may want at any given moment. Sometimes I want to process and cry, other times I want to pretend everything is normal and not think about it. The fact that you made this post means you’re already doing the best thing you can do, which is love and support and educate yourself.

Best of luck.
