Hi All. Carol Pearson needs your votes today. She is Trustee of Endo UK and has done an incredible amount for the charity. She is a fellow sufferer and has had multiple (I think 9, 10 or more surgeries) for her severe endometriosis.

You can vote here and she is currently in 2nd place, less than 12 hours to vote on the Guardian newspaper. As a community of fellow sufferers, we can raise the profile of Endometriosis and try to fight the shadow of ignorance that seems to follow this disease - by voting for Carol it will really help raise the profile of the disease.

And here is her TED talk for those who have not seen it.

Hello again ladies, Carol is still in 2nd place and 7 hours left to vote. Yikes.. I really think that if we all vote, and ask our families and friends to vote, it could raise her to 1st. She deserves this, she has been medically retired from her career as an accountant as a result of this disease, and yet still finds the energy and commitment to be Trustee of our charity. Wish I had that energy and drive. xx

Carol is 350 or so votes behind - don't we have a few thousand members - come on ladies, lets

vote for the good of raising knowledge for this awful disease :-)

Oh was it, darn I didn't realise. Yes, the votes are tracked by IP address so you would have to vote from different devices with diff IPs or ask your family and friends to vote, in a way for them to support you. x
