Unisex with a relaxed cut, true to size, S to 4XL. Garment-dyed heavyweight tee.

I know my own body. Said to the doctor reading the chart instead of the person, to the system that wants a lab result before it will credit a symptom, and to every scoring algorithm now rating people who are sitting right there, and the patient in the tee was believed only when the test finally agreed with her. Knowledge of a body starts with the person living in it. This tee is worn to the next appointment.

Wear it to the specialist appointment, the chronic illness support group, the patient advocacy conference, the insurance appeal, and the family dinner where a relative says the doctor knows best. It is a strong gift for a chronic illness patient, a patient advocate, a nurse who listens, and the friend who was finally believed.

The tee is a Comfort Colors 1717, garment-dyed in 6.1 oz ring-spun cotton, soft and evenly colored, with a heavier hand than a novelty tee and three lines that read across a specialist waiting room. Direct-to-garment. It bonds with the cotton.

Unisex, relaxed, true to size. S through 4XL. Colors: Black, White, Bay, Blossom. Also Chambray, Graphite, Ivory, Banana. It is the believed entry on our disability rights page.

Designed and printed to order in the USA. Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors. Tumble dry low. Do not bleach or iron the design.

Common questions

How is this different from my diagnosis is not a debate? That one closes the argument after diagnosis. This one is the months before, when nobody believed the symptom.

Would a patient group order these for the conference? Groups do. Every shirt is printed to order. Any mix of sizes, one order.

Which color do patients pick? Blossom and Bay. Black for the appointment.

How does the 1717 fit? True to size, relaxed body. Order your usual.

Wear it to: the hearing, the clinic, Disability Pride Month in July, the parking lot where someone took your spot.

Printing and care

Printed to order in the USA, direct to garment: water-based ink goes into the fabric rather than sitting on top, so the print stays soft and does not crack or peel.

Machine wash cold, inside out. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Do not iron the print. More on the fabric and care page.
