My son developed it when he was 12, missed two full years of school and never got back full time. 15 years later he's doing pretty well with his life, but still has relapses now and then. And then I developed CFS, a milder form of ME, just before I retired from teaching two years ago. And I started sewing and quilting for the same reasons as you, it's great to have something purposeful to do when you're forced to rest so much. So, have plenty of good quality rest and don't get tempted back to work too soon.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00459871513482076398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402767592335548328.post-85240503262568380302009-04-07T05:13:00.000+01:002009-04-07T05:13:00.000+01:00Take as much time as you need to truly get quality...Take as much time as you need to truly get quality R & R!

Have even been thinking this unexpected 'bump in the road' may set me off in a new direction - and am so glad this has happened for you. <BR/><BR/>Take it gently, enjoy your holiday and ease yourself into your new full-time job!
