I'm for sure giggling. I can never take a full shower without having to rest. I get dizzy and hot and have to sit. I also chop my hair off all the time so that I don't have to use energy doing it cuz I get so worn out. I try to remember this quote all the time because we are all much much more than our disease makes us out to be.

I like that, you should put it in your signature line

Be wise and dignified like the swan: he maintains his composure, staying unruffled on the surface, while always paddling like crazy underneath.

willow19 I like that saying, I agree with mcbeth you should put that in your signature line
May the sun bring you new energies by day,
May the moon softly restore you by night ,
May the rain wash away any worries you may have,
And the breeze blow new strength into your being,
And then,all the days of your life,
May you walk gently through the world,and know it’s beauty and yours.
