Invitation from Pres. Obama
Your Voice Matters!
Fibromyalgia affects 10 million Americans, and chronic pain illnesses affect more than 100 million American adults. Naturally our attention is focused on the seizing pains while these life-altering illnesses reduce productivity, steal life dreams, affect parenting, and cause poverty. What's your average day like living with a chronic pain illness? Can you access pain relief in a dignified way? What obstacles prevent you from finding appropriate access to pain care? Please, let President Obama know, now.
On June 27, 2014, the White House sent out the email below with an invitation to write to President Obama and share your story to let him know how you're doing, what challenges you face, and what's working for you. "I want to hear from you," said President Obama.
Your voice matters. Please join thousands of others to tell President Obama about how chronic pain illness affects your life. Submit your story to him by clicking here.
