In IRAN, persons with MS, live with extreme stress and pressures

Posted Aug 04 2009 6:21pm
There are a several people receiving my weekly e-newsletters that live in or near the Middle East.
Countries with e-recipients of this posting and the weekly publication of Stu's Views and MS Related News, include: Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Jordan, Lebanon, Kuwait, Iran, Turkey and Israel.
(I used to have an e-recipient in Iraq, but he's no longer stationed there)

It's the people in Iran who this posting concerns as they seem to be living with two MonSters.
Multiple Sclerosis, of course being the one that most of us care much about. But then too, they have extra stress in their lives do to their internal politcal situation caused by Ahmadinejad.

Below this line, you will read of an MS Patients own writing. It's what he/she wants the world to know of Iran. His/Her name, omitted for security reasons which he/she requires:


Hello Stuart,

I hope you're all good. Recently, you know the situation in my country and have seen many news from here that how they murder us and they have no reputation here either in Iran and in the world. Noone likes them, the dirty regime is not afraid to kill us and you probably have seen it on the news. I guess 2 days ago they arrested 3 Americans here and i hope they will be free soon, i just want to say that the government of iranis not elected by people of iranand these riots exactly show that. So, when you say they have arrested 3 Americans do not think that persian elected government has arrested 3 citizens of the U.S. I hope one day we will also have a free and friendly country with whole world and our riots will answer, up tp now 200 people have died for democracy here and to answer a hate and disguise to this government. I hope 3 Americans will be freed soon by your politicians.

M.


Again - everybody - this was not meant to be anything political yet it does read as such. I just wanted everybody to know that yes, you may live with pressures and stress. But does it compare to what some, like "M", might be living with and having to keep his/her MS "in-check".
By the way - In case you all don't know, MS research is taking place in Iran.
Google: MS research in Iran --- It would be to our advantage if they were able to continue this research.

Leave a comment on this MS BLOG if you want to let "M" and others, know your feelings.
