    I have great understanding from the family and they let me do the house chores that I can do.  When I was first diagnosed the family, with help of some articles i collected for the interned on systems of the @#%$@$%#^  mg told me to let them know if I felt that I couldn’t do a task and they would take care of it anytime.

    However my church family either forgets or ignores my Mg the treat me the same as if I were normal.  with two exceptions the pastor and one of the deacons.  I think they took the time to educate themselves, so how do you educate them if their not “interested” I don’t know.

    My conclusion in my personal case is: I they care enough for me, they will search the available data and educate themselves.

    Sorry for the down side of my situation but that is how I feel with my experiences since I have had Mg
