International ME Awareness Day


I tried to integrate this image with my post below and all hell broke loose, my fonts have gone crazy, that's why yesterday's post may look like it has been typed, it has that strange typewritery font (though it may have been fixed by now). Anyway, hope the sentiment is still clear. All you unenlightened politicians and health editors and doctors out there - and there are good ones among you too, I know that - time to take your blinkers off. If any of you were unlucky enough to succumb to ME you would not be in the jobs you do, you would instead be fighting for recognition the way all of us with ME are. As Invest in ME said recently, addressing Richard Horton, Lancet editor, 'ignorance is not an option'.

Blogger still playing, up you will need to click on older posts to see yesterday's post - I am scunnered with this nonsense, it is truly sapping.

Feel like this really needs to be said more.

Hurrah, my May 12 post is restored, just waiting for comments...I am not hopeful I must say.
