Hi. I’m from Dundee in Scotland. Been reading your blog for a week. It’s really good to have something that can make you laugh at this illness. Laughter is what keeps me going. Keep up the good work x
Hi! I’m from Manhattan and I’ve been reading your blog for about 6 months. Your blog came to my attention during a difficult period and I appreciate your humor. I just marked the 5th anniversary of my diagnosis and have been struggling with what that means. Keep up the great work!
Hi, Eileen! Welcome!
Hi I’m from southern Maine & I’ve been reading your blog for about 3 months. It’s always helpful to hear others going through some of the same things as you are. On the other hand, I never like knowing someone else has to go through this awful pain too!
Hi, Michele!
Hi I am from San Francisco and have been reading your blog for about a year.
Hi! Well I live here in Atlanta and I’ve been reading your blog since February because I’m still a newbie to fibro! I was diagnosed in December so I’m still in unchartered waters at times. But thank you for your blog. Not only do I find my self relate to a lot but you add humor and that’s so important. Thanks!!
Shelley and Kelly-Welcome!
Hi! I’m Catherine from Melbourne, Australia. I’ve been reading your posts for just a few weeks now. I was diagnosed with fibro a few months ago. It’s forced me to work from home and I’ve found it really isolating amongst all the other things that go with it. Your words not only let me know I’m not alone, but they’re not accompanied by f*cking butterflies. Thank you x

Hello, Deb! My Dad is from w-a-a-a-y up in Northern Maine!
Catherine: If I weren’t trying to be at least a little family friendly, I would somehow have to incorporate “there are no f*cking butterflies here” into my blog tagline in some way. 🙂
Vanessa: And I’d also have to add “Not Miss Suzy Sunshine”, because that is just awesome!
Hi Jenny-
I’m in Portland OR, and I’ve been reading you for at least four years.
Congratulations on the anniversary!

Vania, welcome!
Hello, Elizabeth and Cinthia!
Hey, Michelle! I was born in and spent my childhood in Northern Virginia. Haven’t been back since 1995, so I know I wouldn’t recognize that place at all now.
Casey-Hi!
Hola! I am currently living in Valencia, Spain but moving to China end of August. I stumbled upon your wonderful blog May 2014, right after I was diagnosed with Fibro. Congrats on 10 years!
Kat-hello!
