The hardest thing about it was getting up, showered, made up, and dressed up, but it was rewarding. My classes were scheduled in the morning so I could go home and take a nap! I was so relieved when it was over. It was really tough by the end.

We still have three sons at home. I do most of the laundry and all the cooking, but little else. My symptoms didn't really get debilitating until about four years ago, so I didn't have young children.

Sick and Tired of Feeling Sick and Tired by Donohue and Siegel was my favorite, also How to be Sick by Toni Bernhard, which is a little flaky but inspiring.
