First, remember meeting with others over the holidays is suppose to be fun. Holidays when you have MS may not be but you should "earn" some points for even attempting. Try to remember this. I would consider getting friends/family the mask that clips to the shirt. Getting them this gift sends a message to them as much as it's a nice thing. You have said without saying that protecting each other is as important as them receiving a gift. Also, considering offering your services to "run" the camera. We can talk for true right. Taking pictures is lower impact and you can be alone at times while participating. Most smart phones come with a camera and I'm betting you can send pics to multiple emails. The face masks are also available in bulk for an affordable price. You shouldn't feel you need to talk about MS to much but what you give and how you choose to interact are things you can control!
