Jody’s Blog . . . a life after chronic fatigue syndrome

This virtual world has been a real education for me these past few months.

I have done a little writing for a few different sites at a penny a word. Learned something from each of them.

Last week I began actually working for EmpowHer.com, a great women’s health website. I had been contributing articles on CFS to this site over the past four months, and now I have the opportunity to do some freelancing for them.

After being so sick for so many years, and after only being back online for such a short time, this is like a dream come true.

Wow.

Only on the internet!

My world had gotten very small.

I would look around and see, really, nothing out there for me, beyond my own four walls.

Suffocating. Depressing. Infuriating.

So I took a leap through the portal of my laptop, into the virtual world of the net.

The reason I am here is because (except for my beloved family and my naturopath) I had to go this far afield in order to find people who cared about me and my life.

Thank God for the internet.
