It's hard to articulate one's own fears as a perpetual advocate for others.

Maybe, I am tired because I have to take care of so many things, like all of us must.

Maybe, I am 15 lbs below my normal weight of 120 because,...stress steals my appetite and time. After all, I am the sole keeper of,...everything, my husband unable to do much of anything.

Meanwhile, I tell no one of the chronic pain,...in my bones,...deep within me; or the chronic fatigue I fight every single moment. I have no appetite, none. I have to force myself to eat. That is weird, for me!!!

For the first time in my life, I AM AFRAID,...for myself!

I am uninsured and can not do a damn thing about that fear. It scares me. :cry:
