Jodi Appreciation Month #2, + Competition 9.14 (occasions, competitions)

Apologies but I'm too ill to write a new post, especially a coherent one. So please see last years below about Jodi Appreciation Month. Competition stands also so get your entries in. I'll try to update you soon on us. Much love Alison God bless x x // http://thetinkerbelleandhummingbirdmeblog.blogspot.co.uk/2013/08/jodi-appreciation-month-2013-shout-out.html?m=1 Hi everyone! A different shout out this month! So, as the founder of the Jodi Bassett, aka Princess of Oz (poo ;-) ) fanclub, I have allotted September as *We love and thank Jodi* month. Those of you who feel able, if you can, send your thanks, smiles, stories, hugs, thoughts, appreciations, giggles, and most of all love, to thank her for the astonishing amount she has done for everyone in the M.E. community worldwide, the facts that she has taught doctors, medical professionals, family/friends of sufferers, and the general population, and the support she endlessly gives us all! Without the selfless work, effort, time and health that she has given us all, not only has she helped our health, quality of life and relationships, but in all reality, she has saved many lives, I have no doubt. So, whether it be by commenting via the blog, the two yahoo groups, by emailing me ( contactalisonLouisebell@gmail.com ) where i can post it for you or send directly to her if you'd rather keep it private, or by any other means, lets show her our sheer appreciation! It's the least we can do! Jodi, I am in awe! Truly, thank you, for everything and more. You have helped my heart in so many ways! You have helped my health, my sanity, and my smile. You are one of the most beautiful, kind hearted people, and,,, You are a true advocate for human beings, let alone for people with M.E.! Thank you for everything and everything and everything! I also noticed I have not held a competition in some while, , , so, , , lets coincide one! Every person who sends Jodi a message, whether on the blog, in one of the two yahoo groups, or via my email, is entered! (Note- If you comment but do not wish to be entered into the competition, just let me know) The goodies up for grabs are, , . One of Jodi's beautiful hummingbird artwork prints . A hummingbird Tibetan charm . A tinkerbelle Tibetan charm . A make a wish bracelet (to wear or place somewhere around you) (please see attached image) So, are you all ready to send Jodi gratitude, and show her some love? Ready, , steady, , goooo! Thanks for reading everyone, let me know if you need any help at all. Much love Alison/Tink God bless x x

Ramadan and Independence day 2014 (occasions)

A joint occasions post for our beautiful followers, for Ramadan and for the Fourth of July.

To all our followers of Islam, "Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullah" (May the peace and mercy of Allah be with you.)

From Huffington Post / USA

"What are the dates of Ramadan? Because the cycle of the lunar calendar does not match the solar calendar, the dates of Ramadan shift by approximately 11 days each year.
In 2014, Ramadan is expected to begin on Sunday, June 29, in the United States, although the date is only confirmed once the moon is sighted. Ramadan for the rest of the world is expected to begin on Saturday, June 28th.
The ending of Ramadan is marked by the holiday of Eid ul-Fitr, which takes place either 29 or 30 days after the beginning of the month.

On Eid ul-Fitr, morning prayers are followed by feasting and celebration among family and friends."

And to our American brothers and sisters, early happy fourth on July. We do hope the fireworks don't disturb you! If you are able to celebrate, in any small way, let us know how!

Best Wishes, Much Love and Blessings

More super easy advocacy, belated from May 2014 (occasions)

Another Super Easy advocacy,

Reply to The Wright Stuff this time, telling them to go look at Hfme to learn actual facts about m.e.

Because this month is not << awareness month.

Or simply retweet my replies, with one click.

Simples! And makes such a difference if someone with his huge following actually learnt and posted true facts about Myalgic Encephalomyelitis

Thank you folks
Alison/tink on behalf of
The Tinkerbelle and Hummingbird M.E. Blog

Check out @5WrightStuff's Tweet: https://twitter.com/5WrightStuff/status/465738171339538432

My replies I implore you to read this http://thetinkerbelleandhummingbirdmeblog.blogspot.co.uk/2014/05/may-occasions.html?m=1

+ this i sent this previously https://twitter.com/alisonlbell/status/403225578410881024
Please please read these. Its so important to get facts right. Thank you.

May. (occasions)

As this time of year comes around once again, it is upon me to remind or point out, with kindness and sadness, the following.

May 12th, is absolutely nothing to do with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis.

It is not <<<<
M.E. Awareness Day,
M.E./Cfs Awareness Day,
or even Cfs Awareness Day.

Whatever faux charities lead us to believe, it is about anything but M.E.

Charities like, whom amongst others, IIME, AFME, The MEA, The Coal Mine Campaign, and the 25% Group, who all, in spite of what they say, are only damaging all sufferers and causing more suffering and even deaths by the misinformation they all continue to attempt to tell the world.

It is a very sad affair to say we live in a world where only this blog, the incomparable Hfme, and The Nightingale Foundation, are the only sites who contain pure, unadulterated, factual information on Myalgic Encephalomyelitis.
But it is the world we find ourselves in none the less.

Please, be an advocate.
Speak up, if you can, in whatever way you can, Im ever small.
Fight for one another, if you are able.
After all. ,

* ‘All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing’ *.

And

* 'Be the change you wish to see in this world' *.

We also did a post a few years ago, discussing this day.
Please see

Thank you for reading.
You are worth the fight.

Our 2 year anniversary (occasions, about us and this blog)

It really doesn't seem like it, but our 2nd anniversary is almost upon us!

May we take a moment to thank you all for being part of our community for another year.

We hoped to inform about this horrendous illness, help with both suffering and understanding, create a safe place for you all to gather amongst friends and equals, and be people whom you can talk with and confide in.

I (Alison/tink) have no idea if we achieved any of those, but I can say it has been such an honour to try.

Thank you, each and every one of you, for taking the time to visit our blog, read our posts and discussions, sharing us as many times as you could, contacting us, and for being such truly wonderful people.

We are so very grateful for you all.

And Jodi/Hbird, , my oh my.
This wouldn't be anything without you.
I am truly honoured to co-do this with you. Love and admire you beyond words.
Thank you Jodi!

Feel free to contact me, Alison/Tink anytime for anything. It may take me a few days to reply but I most absolutely will, with huge pleasure.

Christmas 2013 (occasions)

Hello everyone.

It's almost upon us again,,, Christmas.

We hope the day shines a wee smile upon your hearts at some point, and that you do not feel too overwhelmed.

If any of you would like/need to talk, please feel free to email me (alison/tink). It really is an honour talking with you all.

Happy Christmas our dear Blogger Arme.

Happy Thanksgiving 2013 (occasions)

Thanksgiving is upon us this week.

Whilst we with M.E. can have unthinkably hard lives, I think it's important to try to find things to be grateful for, even if it's just a glass of water.
It's amazing how much appreciating little things, can help foster a more calm, and even a more content mind, if it's at all possible.

Let us know what you are grateful for.

And in return, may I just say how truly grateful we are for every single one of our followers, our dear blogger arme!

Thank you each of you!

Best Wishes, Much Love and Blessings

I know how isolating this illness can be, even if you are one of the fortunate who can be around people sometimes.
So i am offering the same this year.

I know to some November seems early to talk about Christmas, but given that it takes time for people to read this, then contact me, and it takes me a bit of time to organise things and then having said post sent out, early is necessary.

My email is as always, contactalisonLouisebell@gmail.com
And mobile for text message or voicemail 07971151438 or internationally it's +77971151438

Or if at any time you ever want or need to talk, or just feel like a hello, again, feel free to contact me.

It's an honour being around you all, my dear blogger arme!
