So. Mom has multiple sclerosis. Doctor thinks that she might have had it since she was 30. I don't really know what multiple sclerosis is. All the medical dramas on t.v. basically show it as a slow disease where people temporarily lose function of a certain part or parts of their body, and it gets worse and worse and the loss of function becomes permanent as time progresses. So basically, Mom probably won't be traveling the world in her retirement as she hoped she would. She'll be sitting in a wheelchair in a home somewhere because she trained us so well as a family to be unsupportive of each other. Congratulations, Mom.
