March is MS Awareness Month


A brilliant poem written by KADEP participant Christine Payne about her life with MS:
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
There's a monster in my house
I can't see him but I know he's there.
He's a kleptomaniac he steals from me
And he sometimes brings it back.
He stole my vision one time,
I was blind for awhile and
then brought some of it back.
He stole my cognition from me,
I used to know what cognitive meant
But I forgot.
I was looking for a monster under
my bed and hit my head.
"Who are you?" I cried in distress.
In a sinister voice, he replied
"I'm an autoimmune disease and my name is MS."
 
 
Thank you, Christine, for sharing your talent with us!
