Before getting married I used to take care of myself to a very high standard. When I walked down the street, I had people walking up to me asking, ‘Which hairdresser do you go to?’
I reply, ‘I’m my own hairdresser.’
I was very choosy about my appearance. I couldn’t stand the fact of not being tidy. Unfortunately all that changed when I got diagnosed with MS. I was determined to show Paul that being sexy didn’t matter, but when people out there kept saying to Paul he could have done better, he started losing interest. I didn’t care about my appearance anymore, but it was unbelievable how someone can cause you to feel so unwanted. I kept to myself. I hated going out and when I decided to, I would keep my pyjamas on. I felt so alone and degraded I wanted to end my life. I could see no other way out of this embarrassing and troublesome predicament, but something kept telling me that this wasn’t the way, so I listened to my instinct.
Being diagnosed with MS and having five kids was very challenging. But life became more able and successful for me because of my strong belief and prayers.ver menos
