Time to have a talk with the boys that when momma is down, its THEIR TURN to be UP! When momma doesnt feel good this means extra work for all, and they are not going to be excluded.

I agree with the other posters, you MUST accept your limits and know that if you push past them, it makes things worse, not better. This disease isnt a matter of having more will power, its a matter of adjusting to how life is now. There will be days when you can carry two full loads, and days when you cant carry 10% of your own load. You wont know which day it is till you wake up in it. If you can get your family on board, it will take a great deal of pressure off you.

If you were a diabetic, you wouldnt expect to be able to function without your insulin. If you were on O2 they wouldnt expect you to work without the O2 bottle. MS demands rest breaks, and demands that somedays your little body just isnt going to be able to handle a full load.

I hope you heal quickly.
