Zitat des Tages von Teri Garr:
Someday they may cure MS, that idiot thing. It gets in there and they can't get it out.

With this disease it is so easy to throw in the towel, and that is the worst thing we can do.
Seventy-five percent of MS sufferers are women.
I recently saw the movie about Ray Charles, and there's a scene where he falls down and the mother doesn't help him. She says, I don't want anyone to treat you like a cripple. I've fallen down before, and Molly will say, get up and just go.
I do Pilates a lot. I don't do a lot of cardiovascular stuff.

I go to my physical therapist to keep fighting it and one of them told me if you don't use it, you lose it, but I know we're on television so I won't say what I would often say.
I understand how hard it is to talk to people about MS. You don't want pity or random advice.
I've always been this insane. Isn't that interesting?
I think eventually they're going to find out that MS is like 10 different things. I have a neurological disease something like MS, and it's MS, so let's take medicine for it.
You can keep it to yourself, but you could also call a support team like the team at MS LifeLines. They are there to support the MS community and give good advice.
The Academy not only knew I existed, they thought I was good!
If there's ever a woman who's smart, funny, or witty, people are afraid of that, so they don't write that. They only write parts for women where they let everything be steamrolled over them, where they let people wipe their feet all over them.

There's always going to be somebody worse off than me.
If you get a diagnosis, get on a therapy, keep a good attitude and keep your sense of humor.
My agents have me in the Actors' Protection Program. It seems to be working very well. Nobody can find me.
I think I look pretty good. And I know there are human beings my age who look the way I do. There must be stories about us - not just about people who are young and good-looking.
I have worked enough and I am happy to be touring the country speaking about living with MS to give people inspiration and motivation to help themselves.

You have to lift your head up out of the mud and just do it.
Oddly enough, MS has made my life so much better than it was before. I now appreciate what I have and I am not running around like a rat in a maze.
Elvis used to have parties at his house - and I've told this story a million times - but they weren't really parties, because there was no chips or dip. Just Elvis and his boys watching TV, and him making funny comments, and everybody laughing at them. Is that a party? Not really. But that's Hollywood.
Having to manage fatigue is something I and many people with MS have to deal with, and heat is no friend to my MS, either; it can be devastating.
There are several drugs out right now that can't stop multiple sclerosis, but they can slow it way down. They also made me puff up like a balloon. So I looked horrible. I hated that.
Any movie I've ever made, the minute you walk on the set they tell you who's the person to buy it from.
