Do you have a friend, loved one, or perhaps it’s even you who lives with the pain of fibromyalgia? The National Fibromyalgia Association (NFA) estimates that approximately 10 million Americans are affected by this chronic disorder.

In 1998, the organization’s founders created a special day to acknowledge “fibro warriors.” May 12, is the anniversary of Fibromyalgia Awareness Day, and it’s a great opportunity to learn more about this condition and help spread education. But its not the only opportunity!!!
