Hi David.
I was so happy to hear from you. It's like meeting someone for the
first time that might know what I am going through. My father died
last August and my mother died in February. I have been taking care of
my mother most of my life because she had been in a wheelchair every
since I was born. She did pretty well the first few years and also had
my father but when she developed post polio syndrome she eventually
become bed bound. She died at age 73 and then I took care of my father
who had heart failure. I live in the same town very close to where
they lived and I am so sad I don't think that I will ever get over it.
I have been married 25 years and have 3 children and 2 grandchildren.
I have been fighting the doctor's for years for my mother and have
been going through it myself. I have terrible muscle pain all over my
body and the doctor's all say fibromyalgia. The only thing that really
help's is warm water or massage and that is just a temperary fix. I
would love to hear from you again.
Sincerely Kathleen.
