Yep - I have MS. The longer since my diagnosis, I have started to make it more a thing that I can share. This is my way of telling the DPC community...

Peter, I'm glad you shared this entry with the DPC community - and I think you portrayed it very well. Some people commented that your bg is too "bright" or "distracting" but I think it fits very well. I didn't vote in this challenge but would have given you at least an 8. This is an entry that actually makes the viewer think.
Well Peter, 'congratulations' (it seems like a terribly in appropriate term in the circumstances) on 'coming out'. MS like ny illness is not something to be ashamed of. I wish you all the best in your battle against this illness and just to let you know you have plenty of buddies here on DPC if you ever fancy a chat or just to unload to someone.
Nice image, made more poignant by the story...Gotta say that background is Ummmmmm ORANGE
