My first symptom showed up when I was in my 30's and I was diagnosed at 40. It's hard to imagine learning to live with MS while trying to get through the normal angst that often accompanies teen life. So far she has managed to maintain a positive attitude.
Good luck, Patsy! Read about her adventures at Purely Patsy.

A teenager who is diagnosed with MS or any other form disabilities will go through tougher times than adults. Thanks for posting about this.
Yes, Jim, it has to be tougher for teens. Patsy seems to be doing nicely so far. I hope her positive attitude is able to keep up her spirits in the future.
i can't imagine either...you are still developing your identity and body image. that is rough.
Now Merelyme, you are still pretty young, so I imagine you have a good idea about Patsy. She's great, no?
Hi, Barb. Thanks for the link.
