Today is my coronaversarry. Six years straight of being sick with Covid/long Covid.

Terrible irony to be sick again for it

Just trying to keep breathing

#MyalgicEncephalomyelitis punishes me for being #human. I was curious and stubborn and intelligent and caring, but I'm not allowed to be that person anymore. I have to choose not to think too hard, or this #illness will choose that for me.

A Failure to Convalesce An interminable struggle to put on a jumper.

6 years ago today, Covid-19 was officially declared a pandemic by the WHO. Now, most people have returned to normal. But there are still #millionsmissing with #longCOVID whose lives have been capsized. I wrote an article about it: the-fence.com/a-failure-to... for @thefence.bsky.social

It's very saddening to read this news. Condolences to Bob's family, friends and colleagues. A great loss to the entire ME community. 💙

Screenshot from quella_the_dizzy_octopus on Instagram. Screenshot reads "Hi all! Nevra is currently in hospital. She is very ill right now so it is excellent she is getting medical attention. However, her GFM donations have stalled and she needs funds to pay for her hospital stay. A clean private room that protects her from infection and MCAS triggers is about 260 GBP/day. Nevra also does not have funds to pay for rent. It is essential we fundraise for this so she can recover in a safe place after being discharged. Please screenshot and share with her GFM links on as many platforms as possible. This is an emergency situation."

My coronaversarry is next Friday.

Six years straight of being sick & isolated

I’m lucky to be alive but I also don’t know if I’d call this living: erased from my own life, left to rot

Entombed in my room
While the world looks away

A simple watercolour painting of a purple wildflower with green stems on a cream background. Lilac text in a handwritten style font reads: 

Endangered Species
Spreading Bellflower (Campanula patula)

Sound the bell for those whose lives spread vulnerably at the feet of the flourishing.
Ring the bell for those whose days of vibrancy are an endangered species.

Ring the bell for those whose days of vibrancy are an endangered species.

Still at the learning stage of watercolour, here’s my depiction of the endangered species Spreading Bellflower, along with a poem for fellow ME sufferers.

Nevra needs to be able to pay for both the hospital stay & ongoing rent but donations have slowed & she can’t afford both. Please donate and boost these posts. Thank you for your ongoing support ❤️

One of the reasons for these discrepancies is that much of the suffering experienced by ME/CFS patients remains invisible to the public. Some of the most severely ill patients are reclusive and too sick to protest, so we simply disappear from sight and are forgotten. And the symptoms of ME/CFS lie so far outside the realm of everyday experience that the illness can be difficult for healthy people to understand. The cognitive symptoms and loss of energy, meanwhile, make it difficult to explain what’s happening and it contradicts our intuitive understanding of disease, which is that the sufferer either gets better or he gets worse until he dies.

A lot of us probably have artifacts of a past self. Like the two pairs of shoes ($300 each, one nearly new) and other gear I wore to train for a half-marathon 3 years ago. This led to the #PEM crash that I still haven't recovered from. But I still have the shoes.

#MECFSis my cage. 

I have moderate to severe ME. I've had my diagnosis since 2014. I caught a viral infection in July 2014. It not only brought me out of remission with my autoimmune diseases, but it ended my life as I knew it.

MECFS is a serious, chronic,  multi-system, complex neuroimmune disease. 

It's common for me to have unexplained fevers. My brain and central nervous system go into overdrive. I don't have the energy to handle much time outside of my home. Life as I knew it crashed to a halt. 

My life has been extremely limited for over a decade. My quality of life is low. I'm in pain all the time, but most concerning is PEM. Even a spike of emotions can make me weak as a kitten.

I never know what will set it off. Post exertional malaise occurs with the smallest activities that are not part of my normal day to day routine. I live with strict limitations to try and avoid more crashes. If I overdo it, I lose months in crashes. I live in daily fear of losing more quality of life. 

There is no cure. Very few doctors know how to help. We don't have any approved treatments or diagnostic tests but OMF and many other orgs are working hard to change things for us. 

People with MECFS fade from their lives and that is why we say Millions Missing. All it took was a virus for #MyalgicE to take me prisoner and become my cage.

Are you a #pwME? How much have you lost because of this disease? 

Chronically yours,
Carrie, #MySeveralWorlds
