Recovering from chronic fatigue

To mark the start of the school holidays we've had friends staying with us for the past two days. What has been remarkable about this get together is having the opportunity to witness the incredible recovery that their 16 year old daughter has made in the past two months. This girl has been suffering from chronic fatigue for the past two and a half years; the illness has resulted in her dropping out of school and becoming a virtual recluse trapped in her tiredness and severely curtailed lifestyle.  Family routines have been turned upside down whilst a succession of tests and treatments proved fruitless. To add to the sense of loss and frustration she was a top performing pupil with varied musical and sporting interests in common with many of her peers and friends. 

  Following several sessions with a trained therapist, this girl's life has taken a dramatic turn for the better. Her recuperation continues but seeng her looking like her former gregarious and energetic self has been wonderful. What a magical start to the summer holiday.
