Damn Fibro helluva day

I love having animals and don't know where I'd be today without them.  At the moment, I also have some foster kittens that frankly, I've had far too long.  Illness after illness hit them.  But they are getting better.

It's taken a real toll on my health.  All the bending and having to get down to the floor and back up again.  I am reminded that it's why I stopped fostering over a year ago.
Today is bath day.  I can't seem to get more than one kitten bathed without having to stop and take a break before the next one.
My neck is killing me.  And since the spine specialist said the bulging disc in my neck isn't bad enough for surgery, I know it's the damn fibro!  My knees are hurting.  I won't know until I get my x-rays if they are bad or just bad because of the fibro.

So I beg and plead, to anyone and everyone, stop dumping your kittens at my house and when my fosters leave, please don't ask me to foster again.
I know it sounds harsh and unkind to ask.  But on days like this, when the pain is so bad not even my pain meds are working, I can't take it.  It's not fair for the fosters and it's certainly not fair to my own babies who I don't spend enough time with when I have fosters.

I will kick Fibro's ass one day.  One day I will be better.  And when I am, I'm coming after you fibro!
