Thank you Lou it does get tough sometimes to watch my baby cry in so much pain but it's also even more special when she smiles

Hi Lulu,

What a very special young lady you have and she is so lucky to have you as a mother !!

I'm so sorry that both of you suffer in your different ways but giving each other support must be difficult yet so fulfilling in the same breath.

Please tell your daughter that so many of us here have expressed how incredible we think she is, but also you have to take credit for raising her to be the lovely girl she is.

Kudos certainly to you 😊😊😊

Hello Lulu

What a wonderful daughter you are raising. My Goddaughter has a very similar arthritis and spent many a year in pure agony. She has just turned 18 and does not suffer nearly as much anymore.

I take my hat off to both of you for managing to support each other.

Your daughter sounds amazing. Please pass on a message to her from me that she is a very special young lady looking after her mum. Please would you also give her these from me 💐

Your daughter is a credit to you, and as everyone has already said kudos to you for bringing her up so well. Not easy when you have Fibro.

It's all been said. Thank you for sharing this inspirational moment with us. My pain feels a bit less. If she can be brave in her pain, I can be brave too.

Nice of you to share spoons!

Gosh poor little thing put it all in perspective for us .

My youngest has a friend at uni she's 21 , and has something similar , has a blind father and spent most of her teen years looking after herself and him ,mother ran off and left her to cope when father lost sight , she's been here to stay year last summer , so brave so clever so hopefull for the future ,gives them a special insight to life I think

Hugs to your inspirational daughter and you .
