Just too ill
Just too ill to think
Just too ill to write
Just too ill to use the telephone
Just too ill to listen
Just too ill to comprehend
Just too ill to walk
Just too ill to wash my hair
Just too ill to cut my food up
Just too ill to make sense of anything
Just too ill to read
Just too ill to stay in touch
Just too ill to explain
Just too ill to stand up
Just too ill to sit in the chair
Just too ill to deal with anything
Frankly I am just too ill for anything
Just so very ill yesterday, today
tomorrow.........

I do actually know how you feel Hopping Moon...

My illness (and personal) problems make me feel very low at times. And sometimes I feel such a burden to my husband or friends if they have to help me when I have a flare up of the Bechets disease.

I know when you feel as bad as you do you can only go one way...and that is up. I think you have hit the bottom now. Your blogs will help you. The fact that you have written this blog shows you have the will to fight this. You have been bothered to sit and blog. And a problem shared is a problem halved. You will feel better soon, trust me. It may take a few weeks and maybe more blogs. I hope you have good support around you and friend(s). I know you have a good man.

And whatever, you have your purplecoo friends here to give you a big hug and send you positive vibes. We are willing you some strength to fight this and feel less helpless.

Be kind to yourself and take time out-we are all here for you.

warmest wishes
x

Oh dear, you are so ill and yet that is so poetic. I'm so sorry, hope you can receive some of the healing vibes and good thoughts the purplecooers are sending you.

So very sorry to hear you feel so unwell. I hope it won't be long before things get better. Keep in touch.

Suffolkmum said...

Very sorry to hear this. Sending you thoughts of strength and hope.

Poor you - we must try to find something else to help you - I imagine you have done/had every sort of help but if there is anything you can think of you havent tried - let me know and I may be able to come up with someone to help, having been rather like this a million moons ago. I still feel foods/intolerance may be partly to blame. love mousie

The pastel is very beautiful can I ask what you did before you got ME as you are obviously very talented and yet now very restricted in how you can live your life? The frustration must be incredibly hard?

You might take a look at Crossgates Bioenergetics www.crossgatesfarm.co.uk
We use this product on a commercial basis - this year was our first trial year and the results have been astounding. It works on the resonance of every cell. We have left off an intensive programme of worming, revaccination and herbal supplements and relied soley on this for one flock. My niece is currnetly trying it for her hayfever. I hope it might help.

Posie said...

Oh am thinking of you, I do hope you begin to feel a little better soon, we are with you all the way, take care. Posie x

I feel very humble having read your blog because I've been having a right old moan and a case of the glums, when really compared to yourself I have no right.

I will say a prayer for you and hope that you find better times soon.

Take care - jacqui x

CAMILLA said...

Sending you my love and best wishes dear Hopping Moon. I pray that you may soon be feeling better.Let me know if there is anyway that I can help, I do not live that far from you,about 40 minutes by car.

Pondside said...

I'm so sorry to read about how much worse you are feeling lately. Tomorrow I will drive out to my special place and think of you while I'm there. Please know that you are held in thought and prayer.

annakarenin said...

I got your message often people are to polite to say anything especially when dealing with illnesses they know nothing about. M.E has had a lot of bad press so to speak and it is a battle I should imagine trying to get people to see past their pre-conceptions and take it seriously.

My sister is a social worker but she works with children and families. You are talented person who worked in an extremelly worthwhile profession, what sort of prognosis is there for you recovering or being able to get some of your previous life back do they know?

You were right to move near the sea though there is something very theraputic about it I often miss my beach living here, get to it as much as you can, like Pondsides healing place.

countrymousie said...

Just seeing if you felt any better - we are all thinking of you - perhaps the better weather over the weekend might help and you can have a trip out to the beach - love mousie

JacquiMcR said...

Hi, I was just popping back to see if you are feeling any better.

My husband practices reiki and does distance healing, so I hope you don't mind but I'm going to get him to send some good energy your way.

Take care, I'm thinking of you - Jacqui x

Inthemud said...

Dear Hopping Moon,

Thinking of you with love and prayers

Cait O'Connor said...

Just called by to see how you are feeling. I too will send you some healing.
Very best wishes,

Hi Hopping Moon - the others have pretty much said it all. The one saving grace for me when I am unwell - Sjogrens - blah blah - is that when I am in remission - I appreciate the World in a way that many 'health' people cannot.

CAMILLA said...

Hello Dear Hopping Moon,
Just popped in to see how you are, I pray that you are not experiencing too much pain today, regards to Tumbling.

CAMILLA said...

Dear Hopping Moon,
Thank you so much for your comments and concern, most kind.
Yes, we have had a lot of rain in Reepham, think there is more to come unfortunately. How was your day today? You are in my thoughts and prayers.
