MAKING FM VISIBLE! This is why I am walking for FM...
FM IS AN INVISIBLE ILLNESS TO THOSE WHO
DO NOT HAVE A CLUE OF WHAT IT IS,
BUT TO THOSE OF US WHO HAVE IT, IT IS VERY VISIBLE!
TO US IT IS VISIBLE EVERY MORNING WHEN WE WAKE UP.
IT IT VISIBLE WHEN WE TRY TO HUG A LOVED ONE.
IT IS VISIBLE WHEN WE WALK, SIT, TALK OR LIE DOWN.
IT IS VISIBLE WHEN WE CAN'T REMEMBER THOSE FAMILIAR NAMES, WORDS, PLACES.
IT IS VISIBLE WHEN WE TURN DOWN THAT SOCIAL EVENT.
IT IS VISIBLE WHEN WE WANT TO DO THE SIMPLEST OF THINGS.
IT IS VISIBLE IN OUR JOINTS, OUR MUSCLES, OUR SMILES, OUR HEARTS!
FM IS VISIBLE TO US EVERY DAY, EVERY NIGHT, EVERY MOMENT OF EVERY HOUR... EVERY SECOND OF EVERY MOMENT.
IT IS VISIBLE WHEN WE HEAR THE SKEPTICISM, SIGHS OF DISBELIEF AND, "WHY DON'T YA'S...".
WHEN WE PRAY FOR SUPPORT AND DREAM OF RELIEF.
WHEN WE HOPE FOR A CURE.
FM IS VISIBLE WHEN WE WALK FOR THE FAME OF VISIBILITY ON A SUNNY DAY IN MAY!
We will set up Tent in front of Community Barber Shop in Rahway, 1593 Main St! Come find us. Live Music, Food Vendors and Freebies!

Fibromy-WHAT?
Kristen Hardesty Sanskrit Proverb Look to this day, for it is life. . . The very life of life. In its brief course lie all the realities and verities of existence; the bliss of growth, the splendor of action, the glory of power --- For yesterday is but a dream and tomorrow is only a vision. . . But today well lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope. Look well, therefore, to this day. |
