< Something many people are not aware of, we ‘generally speaking’ die about 20 years earlier than the general population. I’m not sure if it is an innocent and blissful disregard or more malicious in intent, but nonetheless, it is often very demoralizing and incredibly hurtful the way people with ME/CFS are treated. So, if you are curious, read on….
This was written by a young artist with M.E./CFS and Lyme, named Elyse Kiera Hasenberg. It’s beautiful in its poignant honesty. (She kindly gave me permission to share it here). This touched my heart. I feel so strongly especially for young brave people like Elyse who are stuck down with ME/CFS. She is also an artist. I have seen her photos and poems and she is very talented. She seems like a lovely young woman who never deserved to be faced with the struggles she is faced with every day…and yet you can tell she has the spirit of a warrior: >

  • These are some of potatoes and sweet potatoes I grew in containers from potato eyes I saved and I think the sweet potatoes were just 2 potatoes mom planted and now there are literally dozens of them. The sweet potatoes are still small, (transplanted to the ground/ garden) I’m hoping the rest will get bigger before the ground freezes.
  • Love this!
  • Letting the hair just be what it is…I wish I’d inherit my mothers silver and white…(or just white), but it is what it is…takes too much energy to dye it. I’ll fake loving it until I eventually do.
  • Some photos of Lucy’s whine fest earlier today. I couldn’t figure out what she was complaining about (but she looked cute so I took some photos to capture her ‘pain in the ass-ness’) Later I found a dog cookie on my window ledge just out of her reach. That was what it was all about….her cookie!
