I am a Bichon Frishe and was born in November of 1990. I am incredibly intelligent if I do say so my self and I love to be petted and petted and petted and petted and petted and petted ..........

You know what they say about animals and their pet humans beginning to look like each other after long periods of time? Well, I think that is true for illnesses too. My adult human, you all know her as Spybabe, has a disease called Fibromyalgia/Myofascial Pain Syndrome/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Boy, I tell ya, some days she is miserable and I stay by her side unless I have to....well... you know...use the facilities. Anyway, since she became ill, all I've wanted to do is lay down and take naps and when she is up all night, so am I. I even limp on my back foot sometimes. Some people say I look great and its all in my head but we all know better.

If there are any other animals out there with pet humans with these problems feel free to contact me. I know I could use the support. I had to go to the groomer today and I'll feel fatigued, sore and depressed for a few days. I think they call it a flare!

I call my support group the Canine Fatigue Syndrome /Fidomyalgia/Myofasial Pooch Syndrome Society and even though I am not fond of cats (I got beat up by one once), I'll be happy for suggestions for a more politically correct name.
