    Thank you. I'm disabled with CFIDS - Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome. After my battle with advanced stage three colon cancer the CFIDS became even worse. Then just a couple of years after my husband died the doctor diagnosed the type 2 diabetes. I think that I am not able to be physically active any longer along with all of the stress of fighting cancer and the death of my husband just wore my body out in ways that I am still not able to understand. It is the being left alone isolated and living with a few unmet house repair needs that has begun to really take a toll. I was ill in bed all day today. I'm feeling just slightly better right now and hoping tomorrow will be a better day. It just all takes such a huge toll on my health is all.

    I'm sorry you had to face a diagnoses this year. I know for me once the house repairs are finished which will make the home more functional and organized life will be much better for me and will go far in helping with all the physical problems.
