It’s a lot like fibro
Granted, Gilmore Girls isn’t about fibromyalgia. However, I saw a scene that really reminded me of fibromyalgia. It was in the episode called “Let the Games Begin”. Rory & Lorelai had just finished a 24 hour dance marathon & their feet were killing them & they were too tired to move. They were sitting talking about how far away their coffee place is. It’s only a block away but they just can’t make it. So instead they just try & use their mind powers to move Luke’s closer to them.
Fibromyalgia isn’t about not being able to run marathons, although it wouldn’t hurt to use golf bags once in awhile on a good day. Fibromyalgia is knowing exactly how many steps it’s going to take you to walk somewhere because it’s just so painful & exhausting. If only I had a dollar for every time I tried to move something iwth my mind because I was too tired to walk to it.
