    I wish we didn't need this...

    Hi everyone! My name is Crystal. I unfortunately was diagnosed with Fibro in November. I kinda knew I would eventually be diagnosed with fibro because my mom has been suffering with it for 10+ years. I have been going through some sort of illness for the last five years. If it wasn't some...

    Sandie says "Howdy"

    Like others before me, I am grateful for a place to discover more about my recently diagnosed fibromyalgia. All of you understand - to some degree - how I am feeling.

    Confession

    I'm a Mom

    I'm a mom and my kids were 2 & 4 when I got sick: Now they are 10 & 12. They do not know the "real" me. They don't remember how I was. I had to stop carrying my two year old around back then and that is hard for a baby girl. I could no longer hold her. I am sad that the mom they got is...
