Reason I am asking is because I have been diagnosed with MS and my friends can't seem to understand why I don't want to live to be elderly. Now I know many people with MS and I have yet to meet someone who is over 50 and can be independent. Now for you're answers I am looking for names that I can verify that they have MS and are doing "well". ("Well" means no nurse needed). I am not looking for anything but names so please don't post anything that could be construed as pity.
