Whereas you can see someone in a cast and hobbling with a broken foot, many illnesses like Fibromyalgia (FMS) and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) may not be so obvious.

I know. I used to walk with a cane on my bad days for physical and psychological support. Sometimes we all want to feel as though people should give us the benefit of the doubt. (Plus, I fell easily during that period of my health history and the cane added stability when I moved.)

This next week, September 8- 14, 2008, is National Invisible Illness Awareness Week. Read the full article below and tell somebody about invisible illnesses. Get involved.

If you and I are a little less invisible, our visibility will rise and benefit everyone.
