I have had a couple of days in bed but they don't seem to have helped much. I have a lot of pain and of course, nausea. I'm going to see Sean tomorrow. I cancelled tonight and he was upset as he feels we don't spend enough time together.
That may be true but when I'm in pain and feeling ill, I want to be on my own and in my own bed with my cat. Lovely though Sean is, it is impossible to rest with him around. He wants to talk or do things, not unreasonably, when I just need a handful of medicine and just "be".
I know I look pefectly ok, and I wish I was. When you feel ill but look ok, other people assume you are as well as you look and they do not make allowances. Their expectations can be burdensome. It is for these reasons that I am supporting the Invisible Illness Awareness Week.
