Team Fibro T shirts and mugs by Dale Rockell: These are using Dales own unique smoke art designs created for those with fibromyalgia. 

I live with a chronic health condition called Fibromyalgia. This means living with chronic pain, sleep disturbance, severe brain fog, declined cognitive function and impact on my vision, among many other symptoms. Very little is understood about this condition, and how to support those living with it by the majority of healthcare professionals. From my Smoke Art I have created unique designs using the Fibro logo of the butterfly, to help raise awareness.
