In the spirit of what this group stands for, health awareness, here is a compiled list of month-long, week-long, and official days for awareness in October. I have also included links to official websites for each cause so that you can read up on any of the following issues and spread the word, making yourself and your loved ones aware of signs, symptoms, risks, treatments, and possibilities.
This is something that I'll be running from this account on a monthly basis.

A lot of people don't trust I am disabled because I can hear, speak, reason, use both my arms and walk on both my legs. My disability however is real and will never leave. I will make sure I spread the word about IDDP!

i had a polite comment with them and everything and now am feeling rather miffed and wanted to be nothing but helpful to you. i'm so sorry, but i'll try to find what i can again, but i'm not sure how much luck i'll have. i'm so sorry. i wish this could've been more elegant and organized as it had been on my first attempt. these were the few causes that i thought may or may not be helpful now or for future reference

i think i ended up missing a few that i'd found; but i wanted to get you what i could. i also realize some of the days and weeks are over or that they aren't entirely fitting under the article; but i wanted to share what i could. ... now
*at least i have it saved if it doesn't*
