I’ve just donated to this worthy cause
I am proud to endorse this initiative, with thanks to the very many people made unwell by medical neglect of #ME who never give up, no matter how difficult it is to continue.
This fundraiser goes live 7pm BST 29 August 2025. #Justice4ME www.crowdjustice.com/case/justice... 1/2

Chris Ponting is an absolute hero. He's involved with this work because of his friendship with Simon McGrath who was at Oxford Uni with him. Chris has spent hours travelling to visit Simon. Amazing guy. #c4news #DecodeME #MEcfs

“DecodeME also looked at genetic signals associated with depression and anxiety that were near the genetic signals found for ME/CFS, and found that neither involved the same causal variants as ME/CFS”

Within a week of the plan being published, There were three petitions for people with severe ME being held against their will by the NHS. And now this mother of a child with ME being *arrested* for her death despite the harms caused by THE NHS!!!

I can't find Ashley Dalton on here so tagging you in with total support for what you have had to do.
Hope BMA negotiations are going better.

@meactionuk.bsky.social @meactnet.bsky.social please boost on other platforms. We are scrambling for lawyers to get the sister out as the top priority. I am speaking with national print media this morning.
Isla's mother has been arrested under suspicion of causing her death from ME last year (heart failure). There was no inquest. Isla's younger sister (15), who also has ME, has been removed from the only people who understand how the disease must be managed. Imagine her fear.

It’s #MEAwareness Day! MECFS has one of the lowest QOL of any disease and yet most providers incorrectly believe it’s psychological and refuse to use current best tx practices. For my healthcare friends, the Bateman Horne Center just released a very comprehensive clinical care guide.
