    The programme will feature Cerys who was diagnosed with M.E. and describes how the illness has impacted her life.

    Sounded pretty good to me, in the few minutes that she had to explain her situation.

    I thought Cerys spoke well about her difficulties. She seems to have what would probably be classed as mild ME type symptoms - able to be active for a while but crashing a few days later for several days, has had to repeat her final year of school, but is hoping to go to university. I wish her well.
