(Yep, a Bank Holiday has been declared in my honour!) I want to do something positive to mark the occasion.  I am volunteering with the Welsh Association of ME &amp; CFS Support (WAMES) and am supporting their campaign for ME Awareness week 2011 to wear something blue on May 12th, which is International ME Awareness day.  Please join me in:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Wearing an item of blue clothing such as a tie, cravat, scarf, blouse, skirt or other item of clothing to help raise awareness of ME.<\/li>\n<li>wear a Blue Ribbon (contact BRAME, Sharon or Jan if you don\u2019t have one)<\/li>\n<li>ask family members, friends and colleagues to join you wearing blue ribbons<\/li>\n<li>Tell people why you are wearing blue and what the blue ribbons represent<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Please would you be kind enough to not only wear blue on May 12th, but also to pay for the privilege and make a donation to WAMES? WAMES is a voluntary organisation which gives a national voice to people with ME &amp; CFS in Wales, campaigning and raising awareness on our behalf.<\/p>\n<p>If you would like to contribute, please send a cheque payable to:<\/p>\n<p>Sharon Price 10, Hill Crest, Langland, Swansea, SA3 4PW<\/p>\n<p>Or to the <a href=\"http:\/\/wames.org.uk\/cms-english\/about-us\/contact-us\/\">WAMES treasurer<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>When I have received all your donations, I will send one (hopefully big) cheque to WAMES with the total donated. I am aiming to raise \u00a3400. (\u00a320 for each year I&#8217;ve had ME). Apologies for fundraising again, but I haven&#8217;t done so since 2009!<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully in 20 years&#8217; time, the world for people with ME will be a very different place and people will no longer have to go through the intolerable pain and suffering I have.<\/p>\n<p>THANK YOU so very much in anticipation of your help and support.<\/p>\n<p>Love Sharon. xx<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sharon Price invites you to join her in raising funds for WAMES Please help me raise funds for WAMES On 29th April 2011, I will have had ME for 20 years.
