Alcohol
—————
When I was first diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis I started frantically searching Google for everything that could possibly help me. Every exercise, every diet, every lifestyle choice. And one of the things I did was I stopped drinking. Some of my happiest memories involve alcohol, a bottle of champagne shared with someone special, watching the football while having a beer, drinking way too much vodka when accompanying someone on business trips in Moscow.
Even though I tried so many different things my condition got progressively worse. It got to a point a few weeks ago where I just figured maybe I need to allow myself some vices because what is the point in living if you’re not really enjoying it.
So I have taken up drinking, not professionally. I do not drink very much but I am no longer teetotal. I am not back to the champagne as a part of me still feels that that girl is dead . But tonight I am trying something new, I’m having cider. I’m enjoying a bottle of Thatchers Vintage cider and I’m feeling a little bit tipsy!
Here’s to enjoying a little vice once in a while! 💖
