This is very important! Thanks for sharing. :) I have some first hand experience with this, and it is very difficult to do sometimes. It's easy to get frustrated when you realize you can't do simple tasks anymore without all of the energy being drained out of your body. It's also easy to let that depress you. I wish I would have took more heed to pacing when I got out of the hospital. It would have saved me a lot of unnecessary pain that could have been avoided if I would have just took my time.
