		<description><![CDATA[I just read a fabulous post by A Chronic Dose about The Healthy One.
An extract:
&#8220;the reason no illness is ever truly invisible is because the people who love us can decipher the many signs and symptoms of illness no one else can. I think it’s important to explore what it’s like for our partners or [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=chronicallyme.wordpress.com&blog=1106608&post=64&subd=chronicallyme&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday I posted on my art blog about how I am happy in my core despite CFS/ME.  Whilst I still think that&#8217;s true it&#8217;s not the most immediate conclusion you would draw if you sat with me this last day and night.

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s hard to accept the impact my chronic illness and recent acceptance of disability has on everyone around me.  It&#8217;s a massive adjustment for me to make but for them also.
