I have totally ripped off [livejournal.com profile] beckyc's post here because she phrased it better than I'm capable of rewriting it.

"For those of you who haven't seen it yet, there is a petition to the government here affirming that "We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to recognise specifically that chronic pain and chronic fatigue cause incapacity for work.".

Which, ya know, I'd have thought was self-evident, but apparently isn't."

Although I am so much better than 7 or 8 years ago when my CFS was at its worst, I still occasionally hit bottom and it reminds me to be extremely thankful that I am able to work.

Thanks for posting this (have also reposted in my own LJ). Having been recently diagnosed with hypermobility, this applies to me too.

That's interesting. I am also hypermobile, apparently. And thanks for the repost!
