Fibromyalgia Awareness Day BBQ and our spots!!

Saturday we got together and celebrated Fibromyalgia Awareness Day -May 12th. 

We struggle sometimes to make our illness visible to others, Awareness day is about educating and introducing our illness to our friends, family, and others in our community. it's not easy to show people what Fibromyalgia is like and because it is different for every person it's also hard to define. 

So we did something a little different: we put dots on all the spots we were hurting to help make our pain a little more visible.    That's a lot of dots!!
