Hi All,
A short post from UWS this morning as we want to promote a couple of very good pieces by ME sufferers:
First, an excellent and insightful article by Tanya Marlowe[1]. We’re not religious ourselves and some of the comments below the piece don’t seem overly Christian but it is a very well written article and especially relevant to those of us wondering what the newly elected Conservative government has in store for the sick and disabled (nothing good would be our guess).
Secondly, The 2015 Artist Showcase on the M.E. Again website[2]. There is some amazing artwork on display here, relating to what it feels like to be suffering from a debilitating chronic illness like ME, we’d recommend you visit the page and have a look.
We will shortly be posting about our project concerning young people with ME and their transition into adulthood, it’s taking slightly longer than anticipated as we’re such a healthy bunch.
All the best,
Claudia and Geoff

Thank you for this beautiful post. I read the letter and viewed the gorgeous artwork, plus the writings of the artists. These patients have to be the most courageous people in the world – all those who suffer these disgusting “invisible” illnesses. Unfortunately, my daughter is ill with ME, and every minute of every day, I wonder how she copes and keeps going.
