Celebrate Fibromyalgia Awareness Day- May 12th
Wednesday, May 4, 2011 at 12:00PM Here is the final post from my student, Lisa Rockey.
As we all know October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, February is American Heart Month, but did you know that May 12th is National Fibromyalgia Awareness Day. Well, now that you do, what are you going to do about it?
I began searching the World Wide Web for some information about this day. I found many sites such as ehow.com offering tips on recognizing May 12th. Some suggestions included: emailing/facebooking/tweeting about National Fibromyaglia Day. Write some fun facts to educate others about this condition or post fliers around your community with this information.
Another place I went looking was youtube.com. I found many videos but I’ve posted two I liked the best. Perhaps you are as electronically savvy as these individuals and can make your own. You could share a video like this with members in your community or family. Again just letting people know a little bit more about Fibormyalgia.

Other ways to honor the day is to wear a purple or a purple ribbon for Fibromyalgia, find or organize an event to participate in involving fibromyaglia.
