Wow!! Greg and Linda that is just so true. You have a wonderful ability to be able to portray how many of us feel. A real sense of hope is given that this illness WILL be validated if we keep on pushing together. We are so undermined and isolated it is an outrage in this day and age when this is such a real and devastating illness. Thank you for sharing your videos, they are such an inspiration and really help to feel that we're not alone.
This is SO true. It's all part and parcel of that mentality of "you're doing it to get attention" or "having a cushy life getting other people to do things for you". I'd love to wave a magic wand and force them to live our lives for a week and see how happy they'd be to swap their busy and active lives for ours!
I wish more people were watching this too - its a great way to get the message across and I really like the references to writers, etc because the philosophical questioning goes to the heart of how serious illness affects a person's sense of being in the world. Best Wishes Paula.
Good for you Linda - it is a disgrace the way people with ME are being treated. I echo Nicole's sentiments - these videos are SO inspiring that I hope you decide to keep them going, maybe not daily but we do want to follow your progress. I am only sorry that more people aren't watching. God bless you both for your loving spirit and lack of bitterness, but righteous anger at your predicament. Nigel

Great video today. I'm sure more people will see these videos over time, as more and more people find out about them. Can only be a good thing.
