I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis two years ago. Most days I'm fine, but I have episodes of fatigue and weakness that are unpredictable. I never know when my body will betray me. Before the diagnosis, I was training for an Ironman. Now I can barely finish a 5K some days. I've had to scale back at work, cancel trips, disappoint people. Some people tell me to "listen to my body" and accept my limitations. Others say I should "fight through it" and not let the disease define me. My neurologist says both approaches have merit depending on the day. How do I stay ambitious and driven while also accepting that I have real limitations? Is it giving up to pace myself, or wisdom? ā Warrior With a Broken Sword in Washington
Health & Resilience Debate: Limitations and ambition. Roosevelt's strenuous overcoming meets Curie's strategic sacrifice.
