Guest guest Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 Hi there. First I want to really apologize for just `throwing this out there'; it's really embarrassing. But...I just moved up to Seattle (Wallingford, but need to find a new place), and have been knocked on my ass with a re-lapse of Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. I am in excruciating pain 24/7, and can barely walk I'm so exhausted. I'm almost completely bedridden at this point. Next month, my only friend up here is moving to another continent. So, next month I am literally going to be mostly bedridden, with no support/friends/family...nothing. This is totally humiliating and embarrassing, but I'm in the position of needing to reach out to strangers to ask for help....help driving me to doctor's appointments (I'll pay gas, and coffee and mighty o' donuts if you need to wait), making sure I have food, helping me look for a new apartment...hell, making sure I'm still breathing. Coming over for tea, watching a movie, leaving a Hershey's chocolate kiss;) ... just checking in. Just being available sometimes and letting me know that you care, and you can help out if something surprising comes up. If there is driving involved, you could even take my car if you'd rather. If you have some extra time, and are caring and compassionate, and can follow through with plans, I'd very much appreciate your willingness to help me get through the toughest junction of my life (so far). BTW, I'm normally a really fun(ny), quirky, brainy, sassy girl and a great friend...I will definitely do anything I can to return the incredible favor. Or maybe this will be a slightly strange start to a great friendship. Hell, you'll have seen the worst of me, so it can only go uphill from there. Please only respond if you are sincere and can/will follow through. I hope that doesn't sound harsh at all; my illnesses are stress-related, so it would make things worse if people were flakey. Thank you so much for reading, and for your consideration. Totally vulnerably, H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 27, 2008 Report Share Posted October 27, 2008 Hi Herbivoresf, I healed from chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia (as well as several other chronic conditions) via a raw vegan diet. You can read my story at www.rawhealing.com. You can also google " Dying to get well " to read the story of another woman who healed from fibro and cfs with a raw vegan diet. You can heal too!! Don't give up hope! Wishing you all the best!
