I feel like a burden to everyone in the house.  I can't even do my own shopping.  I have to give someone a card and a list to pick up stuff for me...I'm so pathetic.  I'm so gratfull that everyone in the house knows I have this condition and understands. but I want to do more for them, not the other way around.  I want it to be like it used to, where I could clean the whole house spotless before everyone got home from work. but even the scent from the antibacterial cleaner makes me cough like crazy(my lungs are still pretty bad). If this were to keep me down, and I still paid rent in full and such, would the shift of chores to where I did minimal work for a month make me a bad room mate?

I'm sure your roommates will understand that they reason you're not helping out is because you're sick! It would be different if you were just choosing not to do anything and being lazy. But the only way you're going to recover is if you rest and stay in bed. Follow your doctor's advice and make sure you're eating well and constantly staying hydrated! tenchi1084 Posted at 4:55 am on Mar. 26, 2008 hmm.  I still feel bad, though.  I'm the only one that could get cleaning down to a science...
