Where in the world are the TMA Wristbands?

As part of the TM Awareness campaign, we are collecting photos of people from around the world wearing the signature blue TMA wristbands.  If you would like to send us a photograph of you, your family, or friends we would love to have it for our collection.

Here’s what we would like for you to do.  Please have a photograph taken of you or a family member and be sure that the wristband is clearly visible in the frame.  Tell us who you are and identify where the photograph was taken.  If you live by, or will be traveling to, a famous landmark, it would be great to include these places in the photograph.  When you take the photograph, please be sure that the landmark appears in the background.  We encourage you to be creative!  We’ve all seen the photograph of the person holding up the Tower of Pisa.  Imagine a blue TMA band on this person’s wrist.  It would be great if we had photographs of our members or their family members with the Great Pyramid in Egypt, or the Eiffel Tower or the White House in the background.  You get the “picture!”  Any background will do; we would love to see you wearing the wristband in the photograph.  We will be posting many of your submittals on our website.

TM touches lives all over the globe and this is a simple, tangible way to show we are all connected.  To submit a photo, e-mail it to wristbands[AT SIGN]myelitis.org or send via post to:
