Pain will flare up, blood pressure will rise, headaches appear, my back will become fang central, and my mood, well let's just say no one enjoys that!

Rest is what works best for me, though it is not always available in time to save me. At some point in the past I learned that I have to care for me with the same diligence as i would care for a sick child. Being the sick child who's caring for me just makes it harder, not less necessary.

I hope each of you has the help you need to manage to live with your ailments, and enough rest to forget for a moment what those are...
