I am 40 and suffer from rheumatoid arthritis which as most of you will know is worse in the cold weather!
I was working like mad right up until boxing day to ensure all done before holiday break. Then on xmas day I woke up in agony my joints ceased on me - so I spent all xmas day on the sofa in agony whilst poor hubby ran around like an idiot and cooked xmas dinner (there are some bonus' to this illness!) and the kids (10 year old twins) played with their toys.
We hope to be in Perth next xmas and with all that sunshine hope that we can enjoy a proper active family xmas!!
