Let’s Sock it to ME/CFS in 2016!
A recent blog post by my amazing doctor inspired this special FREE coloring page filled with wild and crazy socks.
As some of you may know, I suffer from several chronic illnesses including Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS). I am extremely blessed to have a doctor who not only works hard to care for patients like me, but she is also a leading researcher and educator. She recently blogged about her struggles over the last year and her exciting goals for 2016. In the blog, she vowed to “wear wild socks until useful biomarkers are discovered.”
I am inspired by Doctor Lucinda Bateman and her dedication to the thousands of people like me who are suffering. I truly do feel like a slow little turtle (read her blog to see how she compares her patients to turtles) who need the help of a fast rabbit (the researchers and clinicians) to make the miracle of a cure possible.
Doctor Bateman, this coloring page is dedicated to you and all the other turtles and rabbits out there!

As a turtle, there is not much I can do to help with the research, except spread the word the best way I know how…and that’s with my art. So get out your wild socks and your colored pencils and start coloring! And please…share this post and your finished coloring page to help spread the word! Let’s Sock it to ME/CFS in 2016!
