Immune System, what are you doing? Did you know that you have been mistakenly attacking your own body. The myelin is part of us, it is not an enemy. So you need to STOP what are you doing. Call the general and inform him of this horrendous mistake. You will be responsible for Angela’s demise in her ability to function normally if you don’t surrender and allow the myelin to cover the nerves. So, once again, call the general because I need to have a word with him this instant!!!
General- Yes Angela?
Angela – Are you the one who is responsible for having your cells attack my myelin?
General – Uh, your myelin?
Angela – Yes, my myelin!! It is my myelin, hello? Are you stupid? Have you not realized what you have done?
Gerenal – So the myelin is okay? They are not invaders?
Angela – No they are not invaders stupid, we need them and you have been damaging then with you troops. So stop already. Now you have caused me burning and tingling sensations in my hands and feet. It is very uncomfortable and it needs to stop before you do more damage.
General – My God, I am terribly sorry Angela. I thought we were protecting you but we have actually been hurting you. Okay, I will order the troops to suspend the attacks. I mean... we will abort the mission to attack.
Angela – THANK YOU! GEEZ!
Wouldn't it be nice if we could talk to our immune systems?
