NbN's blog: "My Illnesses"

I get a lot of questions regarding the illnesses that now prevent me from working and being as active as I once was. In addition, the combination of these illnesses have made it unable for me to work...and I explain them--I have no problems discussing them, answering questions...but thought it might be useful to put something more specific in writing than my interpretation...and then I can direct people here for specific information, etc...so hope this helps. There will also be a subject in this blog called "The Spoon Theory"---very good story for anyone who knows anyone who deals with a silent disease which although we don't always realize it is pretty much everyone, and this story helps to explain it better than anyone can explain just not feeling good or just not feeling like going out to eat that night, etc....so hope it helps some people and that it's useful. If anyone has any questions about my illnesses or wants to discuss them due to someone they know having them, I'm always willing to lend a ear--now always able to help...but definitely listen and be supportive. If you take the time to read them...thank you!
