Milestone

Today at work, I was leaving a room, walking through a little hallway with a coworker. As we entered the larger hallways, she asked, "Are you okay?" I was like, "What?" I really did not know what she was talking about. She said, "It looked like you were having trouble over there." I nonchalantly said, "Oh, sometimes I lose my balance."

That was it, she did not ask more or seem terribly concerned. I tried to project calmness.

Funny, now that I think about it, another coworker asked the same question after a meeting a few weeks ago. I got paranoid and asked why. Then we got interrupted. I wonder if she saw something or just knew that I had been sick a few years ago. My first MS flares, although I did not know what they were at the time. I do not get to talk with that coworker often.

Anyway, so I guess today was a milestone--someone noticing a physical problem and commenting on it.
