    #Run4ME in Canada

    Thank you. We had a combination of things. Each participant paid an entry fee and we had I think close to 60 participants. (We wanted it around 50 for the first year). We asked each participant to get sponsors. Some did and some didn’t. We had one corporate sponsor that helped get things goings...

    #Run4ME in Canada

    I think things are changing in Canada. Awareness is growing and now with a 5yr grant to build a national research network necessary structures are being developed. We need much more than we raised but it’s a good start. I think we should be hopeful given recent events. I’m also noticing that...

    The Toronto doctors are quite knowledgeable. BC now has Dr Nacul which should improve the situation there. We recently met with our federal Minister of Health asking for more funds for research so we can only hope she comes through.

    Fundraising for ME/CFS research - opportunities, problems

    Donations may or may not help me but it should mean that one day new cases will diminish or at least be quickly diagnosed and treated so this ceases to be such a devastating illness.

    Open letter to the Trustees and Staff of Action for ME about the 'Toolkit for professionals'

    It was mentioned by a participant in our webinar on IAFME on Jan 24. I had the participant give me the link and I forwarded the link to Alexandra Heumber that evening (Eastern time).

    Open letter to the Trustees and Staff of Action for ME about the 'Toolkit for professionals'

    Can you explain the “big problem”? They have only one vote at the table and therefore cannot directly influence any decision. The toolkit was raised with them andI understood it was taken down until it’s fixed. Did this not occur? Please send new current info to me when they go back to old ways...
