Living Little By Little
Hey, I'm Pippa. I'm 20 years old and live with a chronic illness called Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME/CFS), commonly known as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. This has had a huge effect in my life for many years and sadly there's not yet a cure. This used to break my heart and still does to an extent, knowing that I'll never have a life like anybody elses', and will live the rest of my days with exhaustion and pain.Currently, I'm working on keeping my chin up.I've learned to appreciate the little things in life and not to take anything for granted,which I'm hugely grateful for. If anybody wants to chat, feel free :) x
I think that your attitude towar life is beautiful Keep on nthinking positive, and you will go far.
Hi Pippa . Thanks for sharing your inspiring story. All the love
Hey there @Pippaaax
Just thought I'd express my support for you - I've experienced CFS for myself, and it was one of the worst years of my life, with symptoms that still affect me. Did you pick up on the news that Columbia University scientists believe that they've found the cause? I've linked to a news article about it here
Hi Pippa,
Thanks for sharing your story. You aren't alone. I have had Fibro and CFS for more than 8 years now, andhave become disabled by these conditions.There is still a life worth living for us! Stay strong!
