Randolph
native, Sue Jones (Rundquist), who wrote the book, "Parting the Fog:
The Personal Side of Fibromyalgia/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome," will be
speaking Saturday, April 20th at Clay County Medical Center. The meeting
will be held at 10:00 a.m. in the education room of the Clay County Medical
Center.
Jones was
diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 1997. In her presentation, she uses prose
and poetry to get to the heart of the FMS/CFS experience while employing
a balanced blend of seriousness and humor. Hope is the prevailing theme
of her message. Jones will also perform a song she has written dealing
with faith in light of the struggles associated with FMS/CFS or any chronic
illness.
The main
symptoms of FMS/CFS are widespread pain, stiff and aching muscles, unrelenting
fatigue, lack of restorative sleep, and depression. Many other symptoms
may be present, as well. If you have been diagnosed with FMS/CFS or suspect
you may be suffering from it, plan to attend this uplifting presentation.
Feel free to bring a friend or loved one. They are sure to leave with
a better understanding of what you are dealing with.
Jones will
welcome questions at the end of the program and will autograph copies
of her book, which will be offered at a 20% discount to attendees. Visit
