Story
4 yrs ago my wife fell ill to a condition i had never heard of.
A condition that in a few months accelerated from pains in her hands and feet to putting her in a wheel chair.
Her life has been turned upside down, from being a super fit road runner to somebody now that is bed bound and at best gets out of the home in a wheel chair.
This condition is neurological and has No cure and as such gets very little press.
The condition has a very high suicide rate as victims have little or no support and no treatment which can give them any quality of life.
My aim is to put on a concert in chester to raise funds toallow fibro victims to have a chance of visiting the oxygen tank treatment center.
This is the only treatment that gives any relief to the body that is not drug related.
5 amazing bands have offered to play for me but we now just need funds to get this project up and running.
To help give fibro/M.E victims and bring awareness to this horriffic condition.
Please help me help them, before another life is lost to this condition.
Please help fight the illness , please help me get this concert up and running,
With your help we can make a huge change to tose that fight this condition everyday
Every penny raised at the concert will be used to give sufferers the chance to visit the oxygen tank which is the only known treatment that helps with pain relief.
This treatment is not avalible to anyone with fibro on the NHS, but is proven to help give the body some much needed pain relief
Thank you for taking the time to read my message

I want to bring awareness to the condition that is Fibromyalgia. This condition has no cure and so the medical world seem to be baffled as how to treat the victims. My goal is to raise as much as possible to help pay for a fund raiser to pay for oxygen tank therapy 4 sufferers
