May is ME Awareness month, more specifically May 12th is ME Awareness day.
This is the time when many ME sufferers do a giant push of fundraising and awareness building. This year there are many fundraising ideas out there, but I couldn’t decide what to do.
Shall I be a princess? #teamprincess
Should I shave my head?
Oh hang on, I did that one.
Or how about a superhero? #undiesontheoutside
I could wear my ME Association attire…
Or I could GO BLUE! #goblueforME
As you can see I have had a play with all of the above (it was a lot of fun!)
In case you missed it, last May I was a princess, and back in September I shaved my head, all to raise funds for the ME Association and awareness of this horrible illness.
Why you ask? Because I have personally given 6 years of my life to ME. Others have given far more. There is currently no cure for ME, and no reliable treatment plan. Funding for research, support and generally more understanding is much needed.
So please share this blog, my fundraising page https://www.justgiving.com/goblue and as many of my photos that you see. I want as many people as possible out there to know what M.E. is.
