I notice the slight hesitation of the phrase 'MS Warrior'. I have had MS for over 40 years. It's been secondary for about 15 year (and two instances of alarming cancers) but have never considered myself a 'warrior'. I find that when I fight such things, stuff gets worse! For me, I kinda negotiate with what MS is doing to my body. I reach compromises and then sometimes sneak in a few caveats.. LOL! I find it best to always do what I can.... then just a little more.... then relax and recover. Fighting one's way through MS just seems to make things so much worse! So, like you I 'just dot it' - and then nap a while!
I confess, I don't feel like a warrior either. Like you, like all of us, I 'battle' my MS, but not like a warrior gone to war against it. Like you, I do what I can, and then nap. Napping is pleasant; the need to nap I don't battle!
It sucks. I know. Hope you can find something to do from your passive position. I do a lot of sitting on my butt, which is why I make the videos. Don't have to stand to do them.

@@paullima9713 You are a warrior in other, more important ways - I learn :)
6 years ago I was a spin instructor. Now can barely ambulate with a walker. ( 65 years old- 28 years w/MS) 😞
