I don't know about the rest of you but just the word "revolution" makes me feel empowered.
We have to start thinking out of the box and rev up the activism. There are too many people losing their lives from this disease whether literaly or the life we have is so insufferable.
How can the world just sit by and do nothing? I think the biggest problem is ignorance and who else can or would advocate for us but ourselves?
We are not all zombies. The ones who are stronger are going to have to step up and do the work for the others. That's the only way.
I don't want to die not having tried whatever i possibly can to help myself and others have a chance at a normal life.
I think the sit by and do nothing is easy for some people, they are really sick, I don't think you were including them though, my impression is, that this would include you?
I think ignorance is a big issue, I would like to think that I was rather informed and watched the news on a nightly basis, but this illness did not get much media etc.. attention in the past. Golden girls episode, Newspaper clippings here in there, but with the advent of the Internet and Social Networking, I think we are and can have more of an impact!
I am willing to do more, I donate regulary to at least 1 site, WPI until the S*** hit the fan, and I was out of work for a while, so need to re-evaluate if I should start that back up again. I need to save some money to buy a car though, and get my finances straightened out. But I would be willing to help out more in the near future, perhaps within the next 6 months to 1 year. I still work, so I only have so much energy, and need to hold onto my job!
