Christina and Michael’s story
Thank you so much for looking at this my-wonderful page for our Wedding gift.
Myalgic Encephalomyelitis / Chronic Fatigue Syndrome affects some 250,000 people in the UK but receives very little research funding. Support from the medical profession is generally poor. There is no treatment or cure. We both have ME/CFS (Christina since 1994 and Michael since 2006). Symptoms include fatigue which is not alleviated by sleep but worsens without rest, post exertional malaise, and brain fog. Part of our journey of getting to know one another is supporting each other on our good and bad days. This charity funds ground breaking research in causes and treatments of ME/CFS. Choosing ME Research as an alternative to wedding presents was an easy decision for both of us. Thank you so much for supporting us in this way.
