I’m so sorry you pushed that one time too many. It’s so important to share these stories so others can hopefully avoid progression of the disease. So many of us end up bed bound and severely ill because we try to function like healthy people when our bodies just can’t cope. #NoMedalsForPushing

Retha, who worked very hard on this piece to make sure they had all the data and contacts, went above and beyond to help people with #myalgicencephalomyelitis. I wish my foggy brain could express how special she was. #inlovingmemory #foreverloved #imissmyfriend #cancerisabitch #mecfs #mewarrior

On a personal note, this was filmed in Feb 2017 when I was still only house bound. I worked through the night to get the foundation's website ready for the broadcast, and I've been bed bound ever since. I pushed myself too far one too many times. Folks, please learn from my mistake and pace! #regret

That’s so kind, thank you. I’ve been too brain fogged to design any new awareness graphics, but will be sharing the oldies here when I can. I’m so happy that you’ve found them inspiring. 🙏💙
