This has been floating around for a while, and I'm sure people have seen it. But I was reminded of it today when another friend posted it to her blog. It is really one of the best explanations of what it is like to live with a disability or serious illness. I count my blessings that Lyme can be put completely into remission with treatment, as there are many other illnesses that cannot. I know that I have learned to count my spoons though, to take my time and look at how that time is spent carefully. I have a feeling that this will follow me even after I finish treatment, and I don't think that is a bad thing.
