New Fibro Support Group....

Day by day....step by step...
Is how this very long week has progressed....

My weary body has been in a typical flare....for five days now...I think it's worked its way through my body...mind...and strength....and I'm hoping my visitor will soon leave...

I really want to reflect back to the beginning of the week, when my gorgeous daughter and I prepared for our very first Fibromyalgia support group launch.

We pushed ourselves so much to get all the cupcakes made and decorated pretty for this night.I was pretty organized nd had prepared my library of resources....for borrowing...supper roster....feedback sheets...and a structure to the meeting that I thought would proceed well.

And it actually did..

There were nine attendees...
And it was the very first one..

So extatic about the turn up..

It was amazing to see that everyone that attended was comfortable to share their journey and openly open their heart to the group..

They are a very courageous group of women...
And I'm so glad I was able to have this opportunity to meet them and to be able to further support our community.

The group decided to meet on a fortnight basis....so that's what we are going to do.

As that night was coming to a close...cold icy wind was increasing outdoors....we could hear the howling from indoors....and we encouraged eachother to leave to ensure a safe trip home.....the storm would soon be approaching....

Unfortunately with that came a drop in barometric pressure....by the time I have arrived home from my Fibromyalgia meeting. I was totally overcome by my very painful fibro visitorThere was no sneaking in this time and he arrived with a grand entrance...

The intensity of pain was high...Nd I was nearly unable to undress....I slowly climbed straight into a warm bed after reaching for the strongest of medications that I have.

I was totally riddled in pain from head to toe...this is where my visitor stayed until I drifted into my sleep....

I am proud though....as I have managed to drag myself to work each morning...and made it..
Somehow through my four hr shift......As the week progressed my body became more fatigued..
Off balanced...and just overcome with a feeling of  general unwellness throughout.

Anyway....I hear the wea
ther is to improve..


Keeping my fingers crossed...for a better day tomorrow...

F is for Fatigue...
