Today, I hear, is #ME awareness day. My heart goes out to all suffering it or other crippling #PAIS fates.

Contribution from the subsistence cave of my precious living dead.

May 12 is Awareness Day for ME/CFS. Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (aka Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) Ironically I’m stuck in bed today with dizzying fatigue. Or maybe that’s not ironic? Anyhow, to ‘celebrate’, here’s an oldy but a goodie - describing what it’s like in the style of Mary Poppins 😂🤣
