August 8th is Severe ME Awareness Day in recognition and remembrance of so many enduring the debilitating and relentless reality of living with this condition.

Lizzy, who left a message for Trooper’s Hill in Bristol, has written and recorded a piece for today. “It was somewhere close…almost within reach, if it wasn't for Severe ME.” We have put together this short video with her words. Thank you Lizzy.

This project holds many of their messages - messages for the places they love but are now absent from. We remain determined to amplify their unheard voices.

Video description:
A video of various clips: sun through tree leaves, clouds moving over a blue sky, grass swaying in the wind with views of a city behind. Lizzy’s words are subtitled over these images in white and black to contrast images.

Me too xxxxxx bawling over this, hit me with the dog and grabbing the lead to just walk down a little lane somewhere. 💔💔💔🫂🫂🫂 I am so so sorry. I am not as severe as I was and now more moderate but the limitations are engulfing, they eat you up swallow you whole and spit you out, over and over again. In constant recovery for a tiny slither of ‘life’ xxxx We loose so much I am so sorry for your loss, all we loose with this evil illness and profound suffering we live through daily xxxx sending you so much love and healing 🫂🫂🫂🤍🤍🤍
