Day 2 reflections: "Who is driving and who is the passenger"- Symptoms don't exist in isolation; they collide, overlap, and amplify each other. For those living with ME/CFS, LC, managing life is about navigating the unpredictable system when the "driver" role constantly shifts

This is not just a conference. It's a meeting of scientific minds who are genuinely bridging the gap between lived experience & scientific inquiry.
Thank you @icancmeresearch.bsky.social for hosting such an incredible virtual conference. @chiefscican.bsky.social @thewhn.bsky.social

#ICanCME2025 is happening this week!

This was an initiative driven by people with ME and their loved ones with the support of many along the way! We’re so thankful for everyone’s support so far.

And please be patient with us this week if we run into any issues. 🤞💙

The more I think about public education, climate change, science funding, the more I realize that Republican policy is predicated on the illusion that you can harm others in your environment without harming yourself.

Possibly some who don't know the definition of 'economic'.

The people they hate are "getting what's coming to them" so things are going great for them!

That makes them happier than affordable food, good jobs, or a cleaner, safer environment for them and their children
