Thank you for taking time out of your busy day to be on my page. 

***My task: to let my moustache grow uncontrolled for the month of November***

I've decided to attempt to raise some money for a condition close to my heart and life, M.E. Having had family members close to me suffer with this condition, and myself having been recently diagnosed with it, I felt inclined to take some kind of action as opposed to wallowing about it (which I had previously found myself doing). 

I don't want to get too technical on here, so I encourage you to run a quick Google search on M.E or what it's sometimes referred to as cfs (chronic fatigue syndrome). I also encourage you to do this in a spirit of all pre judgment about the condition being left at the door.

But in laymans terms, cfs is a condition in which your body goes into hibernation. Somewhat refusing to function properly, in an attempt to protect itself. If there were an animal to represent M.E it would be a snail. 

The main symptoms include: fatigue, nausea, dizziness, ibs, depression, irritability, food allergies 

Some people become bed bound from this condition, others (like myself) have been fortunate enough to be able to manage it by living a certain way (reduced working hours, listening to body's needs, very wholesome diet etc). 

My ultimate Christmas present would be to raise £200 (as a minimum) towards action for M.E. I look stupid when I have a slug (gristly looking moustache) above my mouth, but I'm doing it for a worthy cause, and therefore I plead with you to get behind it. Even if you can only afford a little, every little counts as they say. 

Thank you!
