Ann,
I am right there with you right now so don't feel alone. I have two
young kids, business I run from home, which is a blessing in some ways
and in other ways a burden especially when I feel like we do. This site
is made for us to vent with people that understand and won't think it is
in our heads or crazy. Take it one bit at a time. I am learning that I
can only do what my body will allow if I go overboard I will be paying
for it for at least a few days. That's just part of the diesease.
My prayers are with you, take it one day at a time!
