STILL MOVING FORWARD
Redefining Progress After an MS Diagnosis
Personal Story by Robert Gillett
Since my diagnosis moving forward looks completely different.

It’s not the fast paced life I used to chase.
it’s not about smashing goals or ticking off every box like I’m running out of time.

Now, progress comes in all sizes…..

Some days it’s getting out of bed when my body feels stuck down.
Some days progress is literally just holding on, surviving the hours and hoping tomorrow is a bit easier.

No matter how slow it gets, I keep pushing.
I keep showing up in whatever way I can because staying still isn’t an option not with MS breathing down my neck.

Every step I take, every battle I get through, every day I refuse to quit… that’s me moving forward.
MS can try to knock me down but it’ll never make me stop. ∎
