This video celebrates the finding of the XMRV retrovirus in ME/CFS patients which was reported in the Science Journal in October 2009. Why would we want to celebrate this finding? Because this means that ME/CFS might be treatable and we've been waiting for decades for something that can actually help us feel better. With today's technology and wonderful researchers who care, we now have hope that we can get our lives back. That's all we've wanted.

All quotes in this video are from the headlines of the newspapers or the sources they are pictured with.

Please help support the Whittemore Peterson Institute: http://www.wpinstitute.org/
for biomedical funding into neuro-endocrine-immune diseases like ME/CFS (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome)

Thank you!!

A new article at Molecular Interventions tells the story of the Whittemore family and what led them to create the WPI:
