The fatigue I experience every day/all day is the same type of fatigue.

I remember about 2 years after the mono, I was out on a date with a guy who was driving a brand new flashy car.

I remember driving by a sign for a motel and I just wanted to go home and go to sleep.

Normally, this would be a big deal at that age. You'd be excited or something it would seem. However, I was to tired to care.

Today it is no different. It is such a struggle to get things done.

As for other people, they just do not quite get it.

That is perhaps one of the worst aspect of this illness. Others think you look "just fine". Little do they know how much many of us suffer.
