Why wear a ribbon?

"My mother is dealing with chronic pain and has fibromyalgia" (worrieddaughter09)

MDJunction to me

"I have been struggling with Fibromyalgia, Bipolar, Anxiety, Post traumatic Syndrome for quite some time and pretty much going it alone. I stumbled across MDJunction by accident. I stayed in the shadows and just watched for four days and then I joined, feeling relieved and excited to have found a safe place with alot of folks that I could relate to . It's proove to be medically and emotionally
helpful to me and now I can't go a day without coming in at least 4 or five times a day! I Love my family here.

 Very funny! I laughed out loud too. I have my own version of the contacts story. I was getting ready to put one of them in my eye and grabbed the Windex bottle that was sitting on the counter next to me. Guess you know I didn't get to wear them that day! :-}

Thank you for giving us a laugh! -Gina

 Another one to add is washing your hair and then rinsing it and washing it again because I forgot that I washed it!

Those were very funny and too true!!! Scary how that is funny....

 Very funny and thanks for the much needed giggle!

Oh and on the topic of support ribbons...why don't they have the pink and crimson ribbon for the FMS sufferers? LOL sorry



THIS is not all in my head, and NO I am not crazy!
the bra seems to be my mortal enemy, a weird 19th century torture device most obviously designed by a man!

 ---hey guys--how 'bout this one: your husband is realy buisy and tells you..."don't let me forget to..." then as time passes, it occurs to him that he didn't get that done and he blames you! So,now whenever my husband says, hey don't forget to remind me to...I say, sure, hon, just don't forget to remind me to remind you, k?---this is a true story of life in Cyndiland.

 LOL! LOL! I can relate to so many of them. They were hysterical. thanks I needed a good laugh today.
May the sun bring you new energies by day,
May the moon softly restore you by night ,
May the rain wash away any worries you may have,
And the breeze blow new strength into your being,
And then,all the days of your life,
May you walk gently through the world,and know it’s beauty and yours.

 Cyndipain- That was a good one!

Often times when my hubby or daughters say, "Hey- remind me to ..... ". I very quickly say, "Hey- don't forget to ..... I just thought I'd remind you now, before I forgot".

 LOL Cyndi. My hubby does that too and I remind him of the fibro however his come back is. "Ok you got fibro I got CRS (can't remember

s@#it) I'm older, I win." Then I write it down and forget where I put the note.

Have a happy pain free day
