Today the skies were sunny and bright, but not for me. People were out walking in the streets, I had nowhere to be. Somebody was singing karaoke while hearing a favorite song. I couldn't seem to do anything right, without thinking wrong. In the garage I found one of my granddaughters favorite toys. Then I found myself becoming sad because I have no boys. My wife saw something on sale, she said I would like this honey. I kept saying to myself, we just don't have the money. Usually I'm the one who could tell the best told stories. Nothing seem to be right anymore since fibromyalgia stole my glory.

Living with fibromyalgia takes you through these types of changes. It leaves mental, physical and in many cases financially broken scars. Awareness of this disease is needed to help take away the pain.
