Quiltforme, thank you so much. I have been trying to explain to my husband why I don't have the energy I used to have. He thinks I am getting fat and lazy just because. I had a staph infection in my knee prosthesis a few years back and have never fully recuperated. Thank God I don't have LUPUS or fibromyalgia but I do deal with my pain daily and this is the best explanation I have ever read of what I do every day.
mszooz, I hope it helps you also. Remember that noone will take care of you but YOU! Do what you can when you can and rejoice in your ability to do that much!
Your darling granddaughter will cherish you I am sure.
