The word invalid has two meanings, depending on how you pronounce it. At the moment we are being categorised as the wrong one.

I have lived in my village of 1500 inhabitants for 20 years. There's a guy I always thought was a little odd - when I saw him walking in the woods and greeted him he just looked at me as if he didn't quite understand. Found out 16 years later that he has ME. It was a friend of my wife who told...

From the above-referenced article: https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/uncategorized/1402870/exclusive-north-east-family-speak-of-me-ordeal/ I think it is very important to be concerned about what might happen when politicians are asked to consider the problem of lack of specialist care for...

Fabulous.

@Wonko I think that's called "acceptance". I substitute "Meh" with a swearword, but it's much the same thing.

I've commented on this one (not the first Sam, the second, currently awaiting approval*). I find the idea of someone with a small personal blog suddenly being love-bombed by thousands of grateful ME sufferers quite funny for some reason. Not saying we should do it, just that I find the idea...

People try, to put us down ...

I suspect one reason that Simon Wessely seems so unperturbed when we gain ground in the PACE debate is that he is busy making progress on a number of other fronts, many of which we are unaware of.

Sorry but I disagree, if you are worried I would read everything you can about it and then follow your own judgement, including any useful nuggets you might have picked up from your reading and disregarding any nonsense you might have had to wade through. As the father of 3 boys, here's a book I...

Is it just me or did anyone else feel uneasy hearing the phrase "end of life care" coming out of Wessely's mouth? He does have a history of taking standard terms and giving them a whole new meaning before anyone realises what he's up to.

Only here. Apparently they've had them in the Andromeda Galaxy for quite some time. They're light years ahead of us.

Something about sunbeds actually.

Thanks. To be honest, the woman next to me did it just as quickly. She started to stand up, so I jumped up and barged her out of the way to hand my paper in first. I would have been devastated if she'd beaten me.

You can count me. I will be German soon. Brexit and all that. Passed my language test with 96%, passed my citizenship with 100% and broke the record at the test centre. For the citizenship test we had 2 hours, but it was on a Saturday afternoon and the examiner, wearing a Hoffenheim scarf and...

They are a very mixed bunch, and just making it to the meeting is too much for some of them. A couple of them have been to fatigatio conferences. Here's a bit of local activism when a father decided to get up and do something...

They say it's completely shit. Some of them are unable to work and have finally decided to stop fighting and accepted a diagnosis of depression and been on a rehab (Kur) just to get half a pension. The woman from the film "In Engen Grenzen" is in my group, the Kur nearly killed her. There's the...

It actually backfired horrendously and resulted in the Robert Koch institute report.

I'll translate anything you write into English for you.
