Contribute to #May12BlogBomb in 2016!

#May12BlogBomb is now in its third year and has proved a very popular means of sharing blog posts and finding new and interesting blogs to follow for the rest of the year.

May 12th Awareness Day represents ME, Lyme, MCS, CFS and fibromyalgia, and blog posts raising awareness for all these conditions are encouraged.
Blog posts in the past have ranged from the searingly honest, to the witty and light-hearted.  They have included poems, art and opinions.  This diversity represents the range of individuals who are affected by this group of largely neglected chronic illnesses.
When you share your posts on social media, use the tag #May12BlogBomb and other tags such as #May12th, but awareness lasts for more than a day.  That is why it is important that the blogs are gathered together to be read after the flurry of the day dies down.
In previous years, the links were collated by searching the #May12BlogBomb tag; but this year, bloggers are asked to submit their links using a form on the blog Just ME that hosts #May12BlogBomb.
Links to posts on Just ME:

Let’s make such a noise together that people all over the world learn about these forgotten illnesses!
