TODAY! ---> from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. EST (UTC -05:00), Stephanie Fraser, host of Personal & Political, will devote her radio show to Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME).

Her guests will be Mary Dimmock, Jen Brea of Canary in a Coal Mine, and yours truly.

We're going to be talking about the condition and some basic history/background, the importance of recognizing ME as distinct from "CFS," the efforts to stop the DHHS contract with IOM, and Canary in a Coal Mine, which has rapidly built tremendous public response and has real potential to change public awareness of this disease.

The show will be archived for later listening on her website, linked here, and you can listen during the show via streaming at wgdr.org -- there's a "listen live" button.

I want to thank Stephanie for this opportunity, and ask you to please help spread the word so people know to tune in. When it's available in archived form, I'll be sure to share that link, too.

I hope this reaches a large audience! If you want family or friends to understand ME, it would be good for them to listen to this
