Short story... Almost 3 years ago I got sick. Was kept in the bed 17+ hours a day. Went to my local doctor, had MRIs, CAT scans, EKGs, the works. Went to every kind of doctor you can imagine except a heart doctor, because they did the initial blood work that would send me there and it was fine. $30,000 and a few years later, I'm diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome.
Now days I sleep a minimum of 12 hours straight. I think I'm doing a little better but still not 100%. I grew up fishing and am a DIY person, so I picked up a fly tying kit and went from there. It really helps having something fishing related to do when you're not able to fish.

Some info on chronic fatigue if anyones interested. It's not just being tired like the name implies. If you've never lived with anyone with it, you couldn't imagine it
