    Social Services Can Threaten Families of Children with Chronic Fatigue

    Pretty good article from Vice about the reality of social services in the UK threatening sanctions against the parents of children with ME. People think such barbaric nonsense is in the past. Not so much...

    Professor Crawley BPSU study - Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) Severe children Feb 2019 - 2020

    I just came across this this morning and it fills me with what I can only describe as the collywobbles. Firstly how many children with severe ME will go to the GP or hospital? Almost never. What condition will the Dr/Paediatric know what to look out for? I now need a bucket of coffee and to...
