Lonely

Hi all, One of my rare visits to shift these days, so I hope you're all doing as well as you can. A quick question for you: I go to MS Society meetings locally but find there is no-one around in my age group or younger. As much as they are a friendly bunch, and helpful I am the "youngster" of the group and i'm early 50s! Anyone else get lonely for a fellow MSer of a similar age or are you happy to always mix with older folk? Cheers Alan

@ahuk , the reason that this demographic happens is that this country expects the younger sufferers to be out working. But, having said that, the elder MS sufferer has a life of experience in managing MS.

Hi Alan I hate to see the word lonely in anyones post, it pains me. I am moving around the UK quite a bit a the moment, and maybe in your neighbourhood.... if you want to hook for a pint and a football viewing or whatever, let me know.... PM me. S
