  Asking for help

  Posted by Leah Leilani on March 8, 2019 at 3:10 pm

  After all these years of having MD I still find it hard to ask for help sometimes. It’s not out of pride. I realize that there is no shame in needing assistance. I’m just so afraid of being a burden to anyone. 

  Since my mom started showing signs of MD, I’ve become a sort of coach for her: teaching her to pace herself and how to navigate in her scooter. I have to remind her to ask for help and in doing so I realize that I need to do the same. 

  Do you have difficulties asking for help sometimes? Are you fearful of being a burden?
