Re: Pancreatitis / Lifestyle Limitations-TO: Walt

Wow Walt, You sure did describe parts of my life! Isn't it really

sad to think about & looking back at how life was before this

disease? I use to play softball 4 nights a week, and in tourney's

every weekend! And now look at me...I am a single mom trying to

raise 3 teenage daughters who can't stay out of bed long enough to

do much of anything. It sure doesn't seem fair at all. If only I

could change things..............

Lots of Hugs,

I can really relate! Yet the hardest thing for me is the waiting in

line or sitting waiting for my name to be called. I have a hard

enough

time driving to an appointment. Lately doing laundry is a chore. I

take part of the clothes then come back for more and then the laundry

soap. I do everything in parts anymore.

I remember the days of mountain bike riding for 15 miles out in the

country for hours on end. It is so much different and how in a couple

of years so much has changed.

Boy does this his home, what Walt said, what 's son is going

through too.

I used to run, work out with weights,Damn I looked good. :-p

I was a massage therapist with a growing, busy clientele. I

backpacked the NJ/PA Appalachian Trail, just loved being physically

active.

Now, I have to recover from taking a shower.

There is a documentary movie out called " I Remember Me " . It was done

by someone who has CFS?FMS but anyone could relate to it who has a

chronic illness. The title alone, the first time I saw it, made me

weep.

It is a grieving, a mourning for the person we used to be.
