Guillain-Barré Syndrome Awareness Month

Posted on May 3, 2018 by Dawn Drayton-GBS

For one month every year, persons across the world acknowledge several different diseases and causes with colours, ribbons and activities. In May, some use blue for Guillain-Barré Syndrome awareness, green for Mental Health awareness and/or purple for Lupus awareness.

Regardless of the disease or the colour, these initiatives promote messages of strength, hope and courage because for us fighters, illness is not limited to a month – it is a 24/7 365 days a year battle of and for our lives.

                  *** awareness is the greatest agent of support *** 

About Dawn Drayton-GBS

In February, 2016 I was diagnosed with Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS). To mark my one year anniversary I have launched this blog. I am hopeful that by sharing my journey I can not only motivate myself and others but also raise awareness of GBS and it's devastating effects on your physical, emotional and mental health.
