MS and Polio Cure: Stop with the ADVICE Already

Can you believe that after 21 years people are still telling me how to cure my MS?

Usually starts with, "I have a ____(friend, cousin, neighbor) whose ____(daughter, sister, father) has MS and they _____(let you imagination run wild.)

GIMME A BREAK ALREADY

Look, well-meaning people, if there were ANY cure, then there would be no more MS. Get it?

Think Polio and Jonas Salk. That was a cure and Polio is all but gone. I asked a 30 year old the other day what she knew about polio. NOTHING. "Isn't that some old time illness?"
Indeed it was. Egyptians drew it on cave walls.

No diet, no exercise regimen, no religion, no exotic trek cured polio. A scientist found a cure for polio. A medical graduate from NYU decided to research a cure for polio. So unless you know about such a person, with all due respect and no harsh attitude intended---SHUT UP.
