Hi, In the past couple of weeks, something I wasn’t aware of has been highlighted to me by two men in my life. For years, I have known that I have very little spatial awareness, a lack of balance and a feeling of disequilibrium. However, when out and about I always believed that, although I …
Hello! I am currently in Northern Ireland. While I am away doing some campaign awareness raising I asked Sally to write down exactly how her body feels after taking Patch for a 20 minute walk. Here goes…. Hi, I am so used to just saying that I feel tired or can’t feel my arms and …
*Foggy* Whoa….Sally has just got back from a short trip to the local shop and she is fuming! My tiny Foggy brain can’t explain what has just happened so I’ll let her explain! I can’t wait to see you all again! I’ll be back in January xx Hello, I am so angry and agitated. Perfect …
Hi, Like many other M.E. sufferers, I read an article in a national newspaper on 28th October that literally made me gasp out loud. This headline came from the Daily Mail, but the story was covered by most of the national papers. The ME Association discussed the coverage in the Daily Telegraph. See the ME …
Hello, Foggy and Patch are in Patch’s bed snoozing so while I have some peace and quiet I am commandeering Foggy’s blog. Today I am going explain how important having a routine is to a M.E. sufferer.

Hello! Sally has been really poorly today; I have been giving her lots of cuddles to cheer her up. Patch is being extra clingy today, I think he can sense that she isn’t ok. I’ve let her tell you all about it in this blog… Hi! I am suffering with payback a bit more than …
Hi! It’s been a while! Foggy is resting up, getting some of his puppy fat back eating too many Wotsits, and is currently snoring quietly at Foggy HQ. I am taking the advantage of insomnia (again) to write a blog. This blog has been brought about by a de-clutter of my inbox. I have been …
Hi, Foggy is resting his paws in Foggy HQ and I’m listening to his snores while I am typing this! I want to take this opportunity to write a blog about the M.E. symptom that is orthostatic intolerance or as I like to call it ‘my overwhelming need to get horizontal’. It is exceptionally difficult …
Hello!! Foggy is curled up on the sofa with Patch and Sally this morning. Sally had insomnia, too much excitement yesterday, and so is getting the last few Foggy bits and bobs sorted before her day starts. Here is what happened on the last day of Foggy’s World Tour! Hi, Phew, yesterday was a long …
