Comments:
“The articles on coping with chronic illness helped me. I cut and pasted the suggestions to look at and remind myself not to be ashamed of what I can't accomplish due to fatigue and malaise. I get so down on myself because on my good days, I"m vibrant, energetic, and productive. But for the last month, I have been 'under the weather' and just feeding the pets and my children is draining. Thank you for the encouragement.” ~ Frances
