Hi all! Hope you are all doing well. Here is something I think we
should all read and if possible, take part in. All of us need to do
something, no matter how small, to raise awareness for this illness we
suffer from, and also for CHRONIC PAIN.

I received this info in the latest www.immunesupport.com newsletter:



National Fibromyalgia Research Association Fibromyalgia Awareness
Bracelet

The National Fibromyalgia Research Association has developed the
Fibromyalgia Awareness Bracelet to help raise consciousness. It is
made from a soft, durable silicone material and is pink (for women)
and crimson (for chronic pain) which equals "Women in Chronic
Pain."
We realize men and children with fibromyalgia are not directly
addressed by this wording.

However, because women's illnesses are in the limelight right now
and
fibromyalgia does affect more women than men, about nine to one, this
is the time to raise interest for research funding. Research will
eventually help all fibromyalgia suffers, regardless of gender or age.
These bracelets sell for just $1.00 each, plus shipping and handling
based on the number ordered. The money raised by the sale of these
bracelets will be used 100% for research, education and public
awareness with no administrative costs deducted.

This is a great way to support fibromyalgia awareness both as FM
patients and supporters of FM patients. Remember May 12, Fibromyalgia
Awareness Day, is coming. These bracelets can help spread the word
about this puzzling, painful illness.

For more information and to place an order, please go to the NFRA
site. Here is the address:

PLEASE, everyone, pass this on to everyone you know who has
fibro/CFIDS or even their friends and family so they can help support
this cause and raise awareness. Every little bit helps!

Thanks folks! Take care of yourselves and have a pain-free day!
