  While I generally did not suffer ill health while a JW, my wife of the time - and also my two daughters - suffered badly.
  
  My wife had just about everything wrong with her that it is possible to have - plus several more things that medicine is only just learning about now!
  
  The daughters were diagnosed as having CFS (misleadingly referred to as "Tapanui Flu" back then) by the time they were in their early teens.
  
  Everyone, it seemed, had CFS:
  - Pioneers, Elders, Elders Wives, you name them; they had it.
  
  Interestingly, in the 12 years since I broke with them, I have not heard of ANYONE
  who suffers from CFS.
  If there is such a thing as "JW Sickness" - it would have to be Chronic Fatigue Syndrome!
