  • "You Look Great" and Other Lies

    This article appeared in last Sunday's NYT by Bruce Feiler and it had the six things never to say to someone sick (and the top five things to say). A great article for us MSers and one that should be required reading for our friends. OMG, I agree with all the nevers. I never really thought about #1, but it is too true. Everyone offers to help, but no one actually just does it without asking. When they ask, even if I could use it, I always so no. Which one is your favorite?

    1. WHAT CAN I DO TO HELP?

    2. MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU.

    3. DID YOU TRY THAT MANGO COLONIC I RECOMMENDED?

    4. EVERYTHING WILL BE O.K.

    5. HOW ARE WE TODAY?

    6. YOU LOOK GREAT.
