September 21 Bored with Flowers? Get Better Get Well Gifts from ButYouDontLookSick.comContemplating what you should give a loved-one or close friend, suffering
from a chronic illness? Looking for a great get well gift? How about a
t-shirt that reads 'Lupus Sucks' or 'Fibromyalgia is a pain in the.well
everywhere'? Look no further than the Butyoudontlooksick.com online store.
Offering apparel and merchandise with a twist, the ButYouDontLookSick.com
online store will bring a smile to any patient suffering from Lupus, Cystic
Fibrosis, or Arthritis, just to name a few.
The ButYouDontLookSick.com online store is yet another creation from Lupus
patient, Christine Miserandino of "The Spoon Theory" fame, who first created
the tees for herself and friends. "I started receiving requests for many
illnesses on the shirts... and even other quotes like 'sick and tired of
being sick and tired', or 'I have Lupus... What's your excuse', and our new
red-tape version of fragile handle with care tees. I began adding new
designs and quotes every week." The shirts come in an array of styles from
tank tops to baby-doll tees, so you'll find a t-shirt, fit for every age
range. Despite the fact that Miserandino suffers from Lupus, a chronic
autoimmune disease, which causes inflammation of the joints and organ
damage, she would always get stares when she used her handicapped parking
pass. "I don't fit the mold that people expect when they see someone with a
disability," stated Miserandino.
The slogans were created to make patients, as well as onlookers, laugh,
think or even ask questions."Let's face it - there's no better way to say
it, sometimes things just suck," says Miserandino. With prices starting at
$2.50, you'll find a quality gift with just the right expression.
