Will you please participate? This national group pulling this campaign together needs more photos. Please forward to those you know who can participate. All you have to do is hold a sign, take a photo (with your phone is fine) & email it to [email protected]
This movement is along the lines of the "I am one of the 99%" movement that was popular with the wall street bailout.

You sign should say "I am one of 300,000+ annual cases of Lyme disease being ignored by the CDC & HMOs" "I've been sick for ___ years and I live in ____ (state)"

Aren't you all surprised this didn't get more response? I thought there would be literally thousands of pictures!!
What can we do to get more participation? I've been posting on FB and Twitter. My local support group also sent an email about this.

In addition to the "We are the 300,000" media campaign, Discovery Magazine has an awareness campaign. It is an iterative map, where you can anonymously add your information. http://discovermagazine.com/tick-borne-illness-map#.Posts: 21 | From York, PA | Registered: Jul 2013

I agree, more people would see it in Medical Questions! Go for it I figured one of the moderators would just move it here.
