Dear purple butterflies,
Today is #FibromyalgiaAwarenessDay. I wanted to share with all of you the first #Fibropoem  I posted a year ago. I hope you will enjoy it. 
 
Once upon a time,
there was a girl in pain.
As far as she knew,
It had no name.
Doctors said it’s all in her head,
The girl had enough,
Tired of days spent in her bed.
She searched high and low,
until she got it right.
With support of family and friends,
It gave her courage to fight, fight, fight!
At long last, the right doctors were found,
Fibromyalgia is its name,
No need to worry,
Her days will not be the same,
She can only take one day at a time,
she must take her medicine, right down to the letter,
yes, living with Fibro can be a challenge,
Some days are bad, yet others are better.

Pretty accurate to many of our storiescwhen living with Fibromyalgia. We gave to a lot on our own and guide the way to wellness/management. We are courageous. I could see you making a t-shirt with this character for the fibro community.

Hi Katie,
I would have to agree with you that my struggles with Fibro are just like many others out there. Thankfully we’ve come to know some through the directory. It’s such a great opportunity to be apart of. Thank you very much for your feedback. I am thrilled that you enjoyed it too! Great minds think alike! I was thinking of making a Fibro shirt for our community not too long ago. I apologize for the late response, but I am still getting used to the ins and outs of my new site page. Sending gentle hugs and be well!
