The Ten%.
I know you must be very busy. With the mobilizing, marketing, polling…voting, watching talking heads and everything else besides the issue I need to discuss. A life-stealing epidemic and someone you know is fighting it.
But should I just wait?
What’s another minute, hour, day, month, year? What’s another generation disabled due to negligence? When will it be time for us, the ten%. You saw our posters at the rallies, ‘We are the granddaughters of the witches you weren’t able to burn’ — in modern times we are the mothers of the gaslit and suicides because no one is listening.
The next suicide, is that the time to raise awareness? No, I’ve tried that. The timing is off. Offensive.
The timing is always off, for us, the invisible ten%. Should I just wait over here for my turn?
When is a good day to raise awareness for the females living in daily pain draining their finances in vain.
Should I just wait until there is a lull in natural disasters, domestic terrorism, Russian colluding and sexual perpetrators?
We have a #metoo story. Not the same, but you cannot measure trauma, abuse, grief, silencing? Let us join the conversation and share our shame.
When is the right time?
Because this disease, endometriosis, it needs your attention, to raise the consciousness of the oldest disease because we are not part of the female-truth discussion. Who will step up and represent us, who wants our vote?
The ten%. When is it our time?
