For the last couple of months I've been dealing with the worst relapse I've had in several years. The brain fog has been horrendous....to the point where it didn't feel like I was even in my body. I spent many days wandering in my house...not knowing what I was doing or needed to do, unable to leave, drive, or care for myself. I felt vacant, hollow, numb.....the person who I know myself to be felt as if she were slipping away into a murky realm. I felt like a ghost....
I've improved quite a bit just in the last week....not enough to write a whole lot...With the help of my awesome husband, Tony, he took some photos of me....then I added those to some photos we took in early November 09. It felt good to create a piece of art again, which I haven't been able to do in some time.
This piece was inspired by my wandering our house, feeling like a ghost.
I've also started a new blog dedicated to my experiences with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome & Fibromyalgia. It's called Embers & Ash. That's where the majority of my blogging about CFS/FM will be. Please come by & take a peek sometime :)
