I have been selfishly frustrated over the two years I have had this problem, and my way of coping has often been to 'carry on as though everything is okay'... this has not helped at all!! I know that I need a lot of rest and to make my exercises a priority if I want to function as a wife and mother to to bring the most glory to God and to the best of my ability - to ignore the problem is not a wise response! Thank you for this thought-provoking article!
