This is very handy. My wife has been recovering from major surgery and had a couple setbacks along the way and she gets frustrated that 10 weeks later she just can't do all the things she used to do in a day and feel ok the next day. She is getting better but I think this might help her understand that currently she is healing slower than expected and she needs to pace herself.

I am glad I could help!!! For me I was 21 and so the idea of "slowing down" or "taking it easy" were words I didn't know what they meant. Spoon Theory also helps me relate how I am doing to others since it is something that they can see themselves. Explaining it without something for people to visualize is impossible in my book
