12th May - CFS/ME Awareness Day

I was reading a thread yesterday on another forum and I followed a link, which led to another, which led to another ... and I accidentally came across the news that today is CFS Awareness Day!

It had never occurred to me that such a thing existed, and I did have a little chuckle to myself at the irony of the idea! For anyone with CFS, every day is one on which you are aware of it!

Anyway, I know there are quite a few posters on FH&G who suffer from it, so, even though I don't often engage here, I thought I would spread the word in case, like me till yesterday, you were completely oblivious to the "importance" of the date! I guess it is an indication of how far we have come in getting the illness recognised, and though there is lots more to do, that is something to celebrate.

I am the same.i know what I can and can not do and as long as I ignore the things I know I can not do I cope.it is worse if I get stressed.but on the whole I think I cope quite well.
