About

We're a mother-daughter team.  Dot is in her late twenties and has had fibromyalgia, chronic pain and migraines for nearly 4 years. Fibro Mom is a 60-ish, sometimes crabby caregiver who works part-time.

We talk about our daily triumphs and setbacks in coping with an invisible and chronic condition.

Fibro World Honored With Sugar Doll Award

We are very honored to receive the Sugar Doll Blogger Award from Nancy at Chronic Connection.  We are so touched that such an accomplished fibromyalgia and chronic pain blogger has recognized us.  Thank you Nancy!

When we first began blogging a month and a half ago, we weren't sure if we'd even have an audience.  However, we've found so much more - a caring community of friends and readers.  We're grateful to you all.

In accepting the Sugar Doll Award award, we agree to list 10 things you may not know about us (in our case, 5 each) and then pass the award onto fellow bloggers that we love to read.

Fibro Mom

  1. I can bake a killer apple tart with gluten-free flour.
  2. I love eel and papaya, but not together.
  3. I've sucked and swallowed a raw turtle egg in Malaysia.
  4. I rode a hot air balloon over the skies of Kenya and hit a termite hill when we landed.
  5. My favorite TV show is Burn Notice.

Dot

  1. I love Swedish fish, snail mail and Skype.
  2. I've scuba dived at night with manta rays.
  3. I've ridden a yak, kissed a giraffe and been attacked by baboons.
  4. The last audio book I listened to and loved: The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.
  5. I have two beautiful grandparents who are both 95.

We've selected four recipients  - and the Sugar Doll Award goes to...(drum roll please):

Congratulations!  We can't wait to read 10 things about each of you.

I LOVED reading the 5 things about each of you! Wow! Interesting experiences, and so different than my life ;) Eating eels, and riding yak?!?! That's awesome!

Thank you so much for your compliment, what you wrote was so kind!

(((gentle hugs)))

Nancy - It was a fun exercise thinking of our 10 combined facts! The Sugar Doll award helped us view ourselves outside the fibro and chronic pain world. Composing our list gave us a chance to relive some memorable moments, and we got out of our "one day at a time" mentality. Thanks for the award and for enabling us to reveal things we might not normally post in our blog. Big double hug to you from both of us!
