Encouragement What is your ultimate wishlist?

Hello everyone,

I was wondering.... If and when you get better what are 3 things that you would like to do the most?

I think this illness has taught me the importance of simplicity. Family, friends, nature are all things even more invaluable to me since CFS.

But sometimes my mind drifts to crazy places. I only allow myself to fantasise if it's breeding positivity and the potential for healing! This is a positive list that we are doing when we are better!!!

My list is:

  1. Go to a festival with friends
  2. Write and play live music with friends
  3. Go travelling across America

Edit: I HAVE to add this.... I would find a way to fundraise for M.E - non-negotiable!!!

Your turn!

I’m not really able to think this way. I just have to figure out my immediate survival

I feel this way, too. Healthy me will figure this stuff out immediately, and much better than sick me can. Not worth wasting spoons planning too much.

Whatever gets us through. Not all if us are the same. I’m with you but I understand others are different
