Please LISTEN to MY STORY here and SHARE THIS LINK & TALK ABOUT Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) so we can improve research, funding, understanding and compassion around this condition.
💗
I’m grateful to Nick, Jess and Ducko from Hit 106.9 Newcastle radio station for sharing my story to raise awareness for this very important global awareness day.
🦋
Please listen with your ❤ with empathy and with an open mind about this extremely misunderstood condition.
There was a lot more I would love to share with the world about my journey, treatments, and golden nuggets I have learnt from having a blind illness for 13 years.
🦋
I’m very lucky🌞, my symptoms are little compared to others, and I ❤ MY LIFE. Yes, I struggle every day, however I’m learning every day to nourish my body & be grateful.
Did you know that:
🦋1 in 100 Australians are estimated to have ME/CFS
🦋25% of people with ME/CFS are housebound/bedbound
🦋 it has 50 yrs of recognition as a neurological disorder by the World Health
🦋There is limited funds and services to assist financially so many families, like mine end up being on 1 wage and out of pocket $10-20K annually for medical treatments with no subsidy!
🙏Thanks in advance for #spreadingtheword and SHARING THIS STORY
Remember share it with ❤, never feel sorry for me, that’s never my intention! Just send love and positive healing powers
Much ❤ to you all
💋Kristen
