Are You Religious or Spiritual?

Do you identify with or employ religion or spirituality in your life?

Were you this way before your Myasthenia gravis diagnosis?

How have these practices, thoughts, and connections to something/someone/higher power/creator impacted your journey living with MG?

  1. Spiritual. My husband was a pastor and the way his congregation talked about us behind our back......was horrible. He is now a chaplain with hospice and loves it!!!

    1. I am Protestant. But I found that the churches only wanted money. They even tried to say my illness was God’s punishment.

      1. I am Catholic, but I identify more as a spiritual person. This has helped me manage anxiety attacks caused by episodes of difficult breathing, relax, and manage stress, which immediately triggers my bulbar symptoms, and to hope that, despite lacking a cure, I will eventually return to a normal life.

        1. Spiritual
