Tincup, thank you! For those of us who live far away from the rallies and can't make it/or those who are too ill, do you know what we could do to have our voices be heard that day/presence be "visible"?
I'm wondering if maybe myself and others could send a sign that represents me or maybe people could send a sign or something and they could be put up to show a bigger presence? Then there could be miles of signs.
Or maybe we could start an online signature and have all hose signatures blown up and printed so they can see how many people it has effected? Or maybe a patient testimonial binder and people could take turns reading from it? Some of us, myself included, make art or write poetry about Lyme. Maybe a wall of art?
Maybe I'm being too ambitious? Maybe each state Lyme support group could gather info/testimonials, signs, arts, etc. and present it to their local news station to try and air it the same day?
Just brainstorming. I want to make a difference and help and want my presence to actively be there, but I can't fly in. I want to think big without makin it hard on myself or others given my/others' state of health.
We are possibly at a very pivotal point, and I want to take advantage of this.
Any ideas, TC, anyone, on how those of us who can't make it can make our presence more VISIBLY known to make more of an impact on those days?
