Thank you to every person who is part of our Facebook, Twitter and YouTube tribes. I know in the grand scheme of cyberspace we are not yet a big group, but there are more of you than I ever expected in the first 18 months of the project.
To be honest, when I decided to set up our Facebook page and post our first video, I thought it would take at least a year for anyone to notice us. It gave me a motivation, as an individual crippled by Ehlers-Danlos and may of the conditions that come with it, that I have not felt in years.
I felt excited!
Your reaction to that first video [see down the page] gave me reason to try harder. And keep trying.
You have all made me feel so much joy while living with my pain and failing health – and for that I am truly grateful to all of you.
I only hope, over the course of the project and as we increase in numbers, we canbring some smiles to your faces during your hard times too.
Got something you just want to get out?
Send your thoughts to words@thetribediaries.org
with the subject [My Entry] and we'll do our best
to turn it into a page on new website, thetribediaries.org.
You get to okay the page before it's public.
But we've still got some features for you to read in three editions of our online magazine HEDS Up!
There is also The Spotlight, where you'll find
subjects deserving a bit more attention.
We're currently researching and gathering material
for HEDS Up! #4 - our Ableism Edition.
Keeps you eyes on The Spotlight and our
Facebook page for updates on that.
