Out of the mouths of babes

When my daughter was maybe 4 years old we had been talking about the Multiple Sclerosis, what it means, why mommy is so tired all the time, and so forth.  She had watched me give myself Betaseron injections and watched me the with fatigue, sore muscles, achiness that came with every injection.

I had a cane at the time and used it for distance walking like when we would go to the mall or the flea market.

One day she very seriously asked me, "Mom, are you healthy?"

I was caught off-guard and was trying to buy some time to organize my thoughts when I asked her, "What do you mean?"

She replied, "If a bear ate you, would it be good for him?"

:D
