Doesn't look like Owen Garvan will be around for a while yet. From soccerscene.ie:
Ipswich Town midfielder Owen Garvan is determined to return to football stronger than ever.
Garvan has decided to take each as it comes and is not putting pressure on himself by indicating when he will return.
Garvan who broke onto the scene last year with Ipswich Town made 29 starts. Garvan actually made his League debut as a 16year old.
Although only 18 – he appears to have been around for ages – is suffering from post viral fatigue syndrome.
"It was difficult to accept at first, but I am handling it okay now. It might take some time, but I am determined to be back full of beans as soon as possible," said Garvan.
"I am on the mend. For a while I could not get out of bed on my own. I had no energy and needed help.
"I have been told that the next move has to come from me, and that I will know when I am strong enough to start thinking about training again.
"It is very frustrating and I rarely go up to the training ground any more as it makes it worse seeing everybody else running around. At the moment I am allowed one walk a day.
"There has been an improvement. But I have been told that it is likely to be a slow process. I will be doing all I can to get back, but I cannot set any dates yet."
