I am appalled, outraged, incensed and just plain pissed off over Michael Savage and his attack on Autism. This man, who I am so happy to say that I’ve never heard before has come to the forefront of the media as the moron he really is by his absurd beliefs about Autism and Asthma.

I’m happy to read that radio stations are now dropping his show and that a major advertiser, Aflac is dropping their sponsorship of his program. I hope that others will do so. There has been demonstrations, blog posts and media hype over his outrageous remarks.

Please view this video below which contains some of the remarks by Savage, who was born Michael Weiner, on his radio show, Savage Nation:

June is Myasthenia Gravis Awareness Month. I have had MG for over 5 years now. This is a rare neuromuscular disease which is also an autoimnune disease. Please check out The Myasthenia Gravis Foundation of America for more information.

Also the Muscular Dystropy Association – MDA – has information and opens their clinics to people with MG. Remember to support them for all they do each Labor Day and throughout the year.

Contact me if you’d like information on a more personal level about MG. Just visit my contact page.

I’m a realist. I like to be prepared for the worst and expect the best. When I travel I take along extra medications just in case something happens that we need to stay longer. I have my Advance Directives in place as well as a will. Some consider me over cautious but with all of my health issues it’s best that I am prepared. I don’t want to make things more worrisome for my family.

The next time we go on a cruise or travel far from home, I’m taking information from AeroCare Air Ambulance Service. This company provides highly trained medical personnel that can transport patients in an emergency or with notice by airplane. They can even provide someone trained to take care of a patient to go along with you on a regular flight.

Having experienced medevac specialists, worldwide service, someone to take care of all of the details, the same staff that remains with the patient from departure to arrival and a medical director that is involved with each flight makes Aerocare Air Ambulance Service stand out from other providers.

Please check out Fighting Fatigue, not only because of my guest blogging post there about Sjogren’s Syndrome but because this is an excellent health blog.

I’m thankful for the opportunity to share my knowledge and my experience with an invisible chronic illness in the hopes that it could assist someone searching for answers or needing support.
