A few told me as IPF progresses it would take much longer to do everyday, normal tasks.

I was sceptical!

How wrong was i, by the time i had my shower this morning, cup of tea and emptied the dishwasher it was time to go back to bed.

That’s fine rest between your jobs there is no hurry, I have just finished an respitory rehabilitation course the best I can now do so much more

I know the feeling - I managed to clean nearly all the kitchen yesterday. I split it into small areas and tackle each bit at a time with a big rest in between - I have two bits to do today to finish it off! If I have the energy after getting dressed etc!!!

[Aingeful]

Oh so true! I used to be able to spend all afternoon gardening,now just half an hour of repotting etc wipes me out! So depressing!!

My mind wants to go so much faster than my body 🤣

[Hidden in reply to Suzie42]

I know what you mean Suzie42.My mind seems to think I’m like 20 but my body feels like a very forgetful and much older person 😂😂

[Mrbojangles in reply to Suzie42]

I can tell i’m getting on a bit as i rub Vic on where i used to rub Brut.🤪🤪

[hypercat54 in reply to Suzie42]

Isn't it frustrating Suzie? My mind has got loads to do but my body keeps reminding me I can't any more. I hate it.

[Suzie42 in reply to hypercat54]

So do I....fiercely 🤣

[HighGables]

Wish I could do that. My rests are now between getting washed and dressed lol, but I’m still here and happy to be so. It’s a glorious day enjoy 🌞.Jax 🐶

I thought it was just me. So glad this forum is here to tell me that others are in the same boat.

I know what you mean, I cannot even dress by myself without getting into a state without hubby coming to the rescue. It's so frustrating all my freedom has been taken away, hubby has taken over, he does the best he can but it's not the same, I just close my eyes or look the other way, I appreciate all his help, he will not accept any help offered by the hospice or the district nurse, so we will carry on. Let's enjoy the good weather we are having and keep alive the wonderful memories we have had 💐🤗
