Guest guest Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 Cassie, you're got a very exhausting weekend planned. Hope you have some good help, strong backs and lots of energy. Your hubby will enjoy that backrub. Wishing good energy to your father. Judy - Cassie Dixon Wednesday, June 11, 2008 7:23 AM Re: Question of the Week - What special plans do you have for Father's Day We will be unpacking. Loading truck on Friday, drive and unload Saturday, unpack Sunday. My father has been ill with Chronic Fatigue, so he will not be able to join us in all our " fun " . My sis is incharge if his gift this year. He likes playing Brain Age on his Nintendo DS, so getting another game like that is an option... For my husband, I will give him the cards I bought from our daughter and I. And, he will probably be in want of a massage after the move, so that will be my gift. Ooooh, we had to send our first child, 90 lb American Pit, to live with a friend in NY as we couldn't give him enough love with our work schedules and our daughter (and I think he is missing her more than us! LOL!) I made my husband a 20x30 collage print of photos with our daughter and Rebel. It will be our first package at the new house. Cassie " life's a garden, dig it!

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 Judy, thanks for the positive thinking. This move is supposed to be " the one " for our family to unite and grow together. I really think it will work out for us, we just hve to not kill each other to get there My father is a HUGE believer in animal proteins and little to no grains, and go through this chronic fatigue 2-3 times a year. We all just roll our eyes, as he is a self-taught overweight health " guru " ! LOL Cassie " life's a garden, dig it!

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 Cassie there is a lot of unknowns about the cause of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. I know folks that eat healthy and have it as well as folks that eat terrible and have it. It is a huge health issue for those that have it and it is completely exhausting. There are some lifestyle choices that contribute to fatigue, but I do believe that there is also a disease out there causing the CFS that despite, healthy lifestyle food choices and exercise plans, they can't beat it though it does improve with these choices. Hopefully your father will improve his food choices and educate himself on what helps with this. Proof Positive by Dr. Neil Nedley is a wonderful book that would make a great fathers day present for him. I was just at a conference that Dr. Neil Nedley did on Mental and Peak physical performance. It was so full of wonderful information. He also has a great book on " Depression the Way Out " . http://drnedley.com/pc/BK-PP/BOOKS/Proof+Positive.html His books are worth every penny. http://drnedley.com/c/BOOKS/Books.html I hope this is a uniting move for your family.
