I Am Clumsy

I Have Two Left Feet.

By: Thekidsmom
Written on July 8th, 2012
I have MS. So, yes, I am clumsy. I have no balance, or at least, it's really bad. I do very well...most of the time. I just look like a retarded seal trying to do some stuff.

Going up stairs, no problem, down..scares the crap out of me. And I don't want to talk about steep hill..walk down, no thanks, I will roll!

    I've been clumsy long before MS.I just see it as a good excuse for my fumbles. Ask Cossy about the time we went to the museum. >>

      I will! Actually I used to be very graceful..now I only take chances if I'm going to fall in water or on something soft! Ha.

    You just need someone to carry you down those stairs and hills and tough places, dear. ;-)

    I have a family member with MS and she finds it hard sometimes. She has some concerns with being clumsy bit it comes and goes. I had never really paid attention to it until she mentioned and you are right, she always has us go in front of her down stairs and waits til we have cleared before going down.

      It is just one of those things... Glad someone here understands. Usually I just laugh it off.

      She does too. It scares me though because I am always afraid she is going to fall but she says she has it under control so I let it go at that.

      Yeah, better to fall and laugh then to be left to feel you can't do it at all.
