My arms/shoulders have been very irritable lately. I am having particular trouble getting anything done on the computer. My backup system has been unavailable as well: Larry has been way too busy with work to help. Hence, no real post this week. Not even a little scribble. Next week. In the meantime, I think I'll go sit in the sun.
Just wanted to write a brief note that I am still checking in with your blog, still have a partner struggling mightily with pervasive unattributed exhaustion, still using your writing to sort out the mystery of suffering.
Keep writing. Or cartooning. Or just typing in a few characters -- what you can.
Thank you for the note. Yes...the mystery...well...stay tuned. I've read a quote from Jean Vanier, founder of L’Arche communities for people with developmental disabilities, that I love: "Woundedness is inherent in the human condition, what we have to do is walk with it instead of fleeing from it." I'm so sorry your partner is still suffering. Hearing from people who follow my blog gives me such a boost to keep putting my heart out there.
