Look on the bright side.
Many people swear by that,
even MSers.
Tricky juggling act,
facing disability
while upholding hope.
Where in the spectrum
of possible attitudes
does denial lie?

Very ponderable Judy. For me, denial is in a spectrum all of it's own.
Cheers,

Perhaps, ONLY looking on the bright side...never allowing oneself to dwell in the murky mix and feel the sadness, disappointment, frustration, pain, isolation, fear, anger etc...that would be denial. To embrace it all...the full spectrum and know that all emotions are welcome. That's real.
Both of you have enhanced my understanding of the issue I raised. Karen, that denial has its own spectrum is an intriguing concept. Laura, you stated much more clearly what I was trying to say but was limited to 51 syllables in saying it. You nailed it. Thanks to both.
Judy
