Story

Please support our cause if you can.

 CFS/ME hit our home like a ton of bricks myself and david had never heard of any such illness until 6 months ago.As its so complex and the doctors here cannot diagnose through testing we were instantly made to feel fobbed off and pushed away. In our case we still have no support what so ever regarding that. 

What I do know though is we are not alone.Not at all I started reading confinding in closed forums where REAL people were sharing their stories and sharing love and support to families and people who feel the don't have a voice on this to to realise that this was where I would find support to help david and also Ellie(9) and myself as we also would need support too.

David can't do anything on days. He sleeps a lot,He forgets alot and he is in a lot of pain can't watch tv or go on his phone or eat or drink on Days but thats the days we share alone behind closed doors the days we love and support him with all we have.

To be honest In doing anything for this cause at all I only wish to share awareness on to others and let them know they are not alone and keep going looking for answers and fighting their corner.

Cfs/Me has brought my family to its knees and we are STILL fighting to be heard.It has emotionally,physically and mentally drained us equally and still does but I also know it has brought us our best days too.To appriecate life and others and what's trully important Living a happy life. EVERYONE deserves that so if you can please donate it would be very much appriecated.

Thank you from 

The ME 3 🤗💜💙 (Nic,David and our wonderful Ellie)
