HI Guys,
I am a finalist for 3 contests that are ending this week! I am thrilled and honored- but now because all 3 are this week I think I may be splitting the vote kida, because people think they voted already when they voted for 1 etc. now I am not winning any. I had my hopes up. I am honored to be a finalist-- but I still want to try my best to win. I need your help big time! please get the word out- and/ or go vote yourself if you havent yet! PLEASE post to any other message boards, to you…

Hi! Endometriosis Awareness Month is in full swing and we need all the help we can get!
Our endo awareness petition is growing and our #endo tweet campaign is getting bigger too. But we need more help!
Your help would be very much appreciate with signing our petition, retweeting messages, and helping us get the word out to as many ppl as we possibly can.
With your following, you have the power to reach many people. Since your followers are chronically ill, they are fairly likely to be willing to pitch in and help us with our efforts... if you ask them.
Would you please consider doing so? Endometriosis is under-researched, the average diagnosis occurs 9.9 years after the onset of symptoms, and many doctors are poorly educated about endo.
Endo affects 89 million women & girls. That makes endo more common than AIDS and more common than cancer!

For such a common illness, there are a very unfortunate number of myths and misconceptions out there about endo. Women and girls are suffering in silence.
Below is the petition link. ANYONE (male, female, young, old, endo patient, non-endo patient, etc.) can sign the petition. It is simply to support awareness of endo.

Any retweets of endometriosis-related messages would help enormously too.
Thank you so much!
Jeanne
God bless!
