Hey guys,
Here is the pre written thing. Scroll down for my writing.
I am reaching out to you to support the Bateman Horne Center of Excellence, a remarkable nonprofit dedicated to transforming the lives of those affected by myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), Long COVID, fibromyalgia, and similar conditions. The work they do is essential, providing hope and healing to individuals struggling with these complex illnesses.
Your contributions can make a significant impact in supporting their vital initiatives, such as:
- Advancing medical education and training for healthcare professionals, ensuring better care for those affected.
- Funding groundbreaking research initiatives aimed at improving treatment options and patient outcomes.
I can personally attest that ME/CFS is the worst thing to ever happen to me. There is no cure and no approved treatment, and although at its worst ME is deadly, it has less research dedicated to it than male patterned baldness.
It would mean the world to me if you would donate and/or share. In the six months since I was diagnosed, my life has been turned upside down in the worst way. Watching my friends work jobs, get married, and run marathons while I'm stuck in my childhood bedroom unable to stand for more than three minutes is excruciating, and I'm considered a moderate case. There are people who have it far far worse than I do.
A good amount of people with ME are so sick they can't advocate for themselves, so I'm here to do it for them.
Please, please, help us out.
Thanks <3
