Today, 8th August, is Severe ME Remembrance and Awareness Day for all those who have lost their lives to this horrific disease, and for those still living with it.
People who knew me before I was ill may think my situation is bad (and don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's great), however I honestly count myself as fortunate as I know so many others who have much, much more severe ME than I do. I know of people who have died from it, I know people who literally only have days to live, and I know people for whom every day is a living nightmare.
