It started with full-body pain. My  43  shifted and I went from being an energetic, happy girl, to a person my husband James didn’t  44 . Something always got on my  45  and I was very confused. I found myself crying all the time without reason.

    Things went from bad to worse and I was  46  risk of losing my job. James took me to see my long-term doctor, who told me I had to go on medical  47  immediately. I fought him as if crazy, but in the end, he and James  48 .

    I was so ashamed. I thought I had lost my mind, which I didn’t want anyone to  49 . I made James promise not to tell our families and it broke his heart to have everything  50 . I still feel awful that I made James  51  that way, but I’m so  52  to have a partner who was willing to make such a sacrifice for me.

    I began to take days off before I got my diagnosis: fibromyalgia (纤维肌痛) and a sleep disorder —so severe  53  it forced me to wake up over two dozen times an hour! There is no cure, but both can be  54 .

Anything you get in this world is a gift.  59 , stop thinking you’re miserable just because life has handed you some  60 . Get over these difficulties and find a way to live.”
