Re: e-mail slowdown/Crummy time of year

[Guest guest]

Rosemary,

I am sorry to hear that you are down. It's a hard time of year, so

little time, so much to do, to many calories lurking by, calling to you,

just begging to be eaten (this could just be me of course) and way, way

to much stress. Of course, then you add on what you normally deal with

everyday ... what fun! From your various emails, it doesn't sound like

the situation with your husband is getting any easier. I'm sorry to hear

this.

I found your comment about being tired of worrying and worrying about

being tired interesting. I have often wondered how tired other people

with children with CF are. There always seems like there is so much to

do and I never have enough time. As a result, I average around six hours

of sleep a night and unfortunately both my husband and I are of the type

that needs a minimum of 8 to feel like we are functioning normally. We

both nod off constantly while we are reading to the girls and if I sit or

lay down for even a little while, I can fall asleep almost immediately.

Yet at night, I can never fall asleep. I lay awake thinking of

everything that still needs done and planning what I need to get done

tomorrow (bad habit almost impossible to break). I am always worrying

about how tired both my husband and I are.

I am actually sick today. I seem to have picked up a virus of some sort

(at least this is what I am hoping). I was up practically all night

because my stomach hurt so bad I couldn't sleep. It makes me wonder what

Emma's stomach feels like on a daily basis and how she ever gets any

sleep. I am just hoping the girls don't catch it.

Anyway, I hope you were able to get your christmas shopping done and

that both Dylan and feel better for Christmas. Sorry to hear they

both have problems at the moment.

- mom to Emma 2 years old w/cf and Isabelle 4 years old wo/cf

Rosemary,

You have every right to feel tired. It takes a lot of energy, being

an angel! Wish I was closer. I'd love to help you out once and a

while.

Hope you completed your shopping and wrapping!
