Hi,I deliberately keep this campaign light and upbeat as I feel there are more than enough heart wrenching ME life experience blogs/campaigns/websites in the world already. I am trying to make this campaign engaging and enjoyable to follow whilst highlighting the awfulness of this increasingly common debilitating illness. I think non sufferers do not understand …
Hello! I (Sally) have insomnia (one of my M.E. symptoms) and I have decided to write the latest blog post while Foggy is fast asleep in Foggy HQ. This blog post is about perhaps one of the most noticeable symptoms for me to deal with. It’s a symptom that other people can actually detect, some …
Hello!! Sally thinks Foggy is perfect ‘just as he is’ but he wants to be a better Foggy in 2015. So here are his 2015 resolutions. 1. Eat less Wotsits – they are crisps and not a vegetable 2. More regular baths – hey! A 30 degrees spin in the washing machine isn’t good for …
Hello! My name is Claire (@1987clairebear if you fancy saying hello on Twitter!); I’m 27, and very proud to be a Foggy sitter.

Hello!! This blog is a bit too serious/adult/financial for Foggy so he is handing it over to Sally to tell you all about her dilemma. Hi, I decided the other day that I need to get my finances in order and to do the mature thing and sort life assurance. I tried applying 5 years …
Hey! Foggy thinks Sally has been pushing herself a little bit too hard and wishes she would/could slow down a bit (Not possible Fogs). Foggy would like his non-M.E. sufferer Followers to understand why work demands can make symptoms worse. He is going to use Sally’s typical work day as an example to show how …
Hi, I’m James (@jpc101 if you’re a twitterer) and it’s an honour to do a guest post for Foggy! Well, where do I start? I’ve had M.E. for over 20 years (I’m 35). I got the flu over Christmas during my first year at Secondary School. Over the next few months I was on/off at …
Foggy is upset and not talking to Sally as he is DESPERATE to go to a rugby game and Sally went to one without him yesterday. Foggy thinks people need to know just how tiring fun days out can be for sufferers so has allowed Sally to write another blog post. He (the original) is …
