Just a question

Do you have M.E.?

If so, how would you feel if the person you love tells you that if you relapse, or develope severe M.E., becoming bed bound, that they would not be able to be there for you?

I would be interested to hear any points of view on this.

Welcome to my Fog Blog. The original purpose of this blog was to document my life on a day to day basis as evidence of what it is like to live with M.E., for my tribunal for Employment and Support Allowance. The blog however has developed since then. You will now find here:
- the occasional post about my life with M.E.
- posts regarding developing a new relationship whilst struggling with M.E.
- information about M.E. and CFS
- information about sickness benefits and my journey with them.

If you are uncertain what M.E. / CFS is, please follow the second link below.

A brief overview of my story, is that I have been ill since 2001. My onset happened with a combination of a viral infection, an allergic reaction to a house infected with toxic mould, and a nervous breakdown. Diagnosis took six years of fighting with doctors who didn't believe I was ill and going round and round in circles in the NHS. For six months of 2010 I was bedbound. I am now mostly housebound. I cannot remember what it is like to be healthy.
