We could start today - just by having a t-shirt printed with: FIBROMYALGIA & red crosses on the upper tender points. Trousers with lower tender points. (Never did like wearing dresses).

I have done extensive research on the internet re Fibro and one of the things they suggest could cause Fibro is road accident - I was in a bad one when very young. I applied for my GP records last week and they have just rung to say they are ready!!

How about the girls in the birthday card club - we could raise funds with them.

We could book local community centre then contact local radio to advertise - if I heard somebody mention the word Fibromyalgia I would turn the radio up full pelt>

I thought of making a dress and having a print of the body scanned onto it, with red cross marks on all pressure points.

How about: Putting a notice up in shop windows, in local papers asking if anyone who has or knows somebody to contact us. I am sure that anyone who has this will be as keen as us. The more in the group the stronger we will be. Then we could have a meeting and discuss ideas together.

Puss - so sorry to hear about your son. I cannot do much here in Spain but if it would help I could make some cards that perhaps you could sell. You could perhaps doi a bring and buy sale - do they still do that in UK? Anyway the offer is there if you want mate. Love Mary xx

Puss I want to do something to raise awareness as close to home as possible. I haven't met one person who hasn't frowned when I've told them what I've got.
