Hi
Pat,
I'm
sorry you're having such a rough time of it all. It sounds like you are just
worn down!
I
can't remember if you have mentioned before if you have seen a doctor about
coping with all of this. It sounds like you may have depression and could
possibly benefit from counseling, if that's an option for you.
It
might help you to take a self-assessment online for depression. One such
assessment is here:
You
could print out your results and take them to the doctor with you. I think it's
important that you get help for these issues, and there are many types of
counselors and facilities available. Many communities also have free or low-cost
services available. If you need help finding anything near you, just let me know
(off list).
Take
care,
jennifer
g.

Lynne, It is such a relief to know that someone, somewhere really does
know how I feel. I try not to complain around my family but sometimes
it just subconciously comes out without me wanting it to. It's hard to
be strong for the sake of others when you feel so bad so much of the
time(like every minute that you are awake). I just get sick and tired
of being "sick and tired". I have always been such a active person,
most times working 2 jobs and doing things with my children,
occassionally going out, always loved to entertain friends and family
and now I can't even do basic house cleaning around my home. The
emotional part of living with cml is taking me down as well as the
physical part of it. And I have always been a fighter, and now I don't
have the energy to fight. I live in fear that the cml is going to take
me out, and how unfair to have to spend your last days like this.
