An ME essay by me (Rivka @RivkaTweets) was recently published in three publications:

1) ProHealth
"Celebrating a Massachusetts State Proclamation for ME Awareness"
http://www.prohealth.com/library/showarticle.cfm?libid=30300

2) CMG625.com: A health industry website (!!!)
“Recognizing the enormity of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis"
http://cmg625.com/rivka-solomon-recognizing

3) NewEnglandDiary.com: A New England literary website
“Mass. recognizes Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome"
https://newenglanddiary.com/home/rivka-solomon-mass-recognizes-the-me-challenge/5/29/2017

Here is the start of the essay...
"Frustrated with the lack of movement on the national level to help the up to 2.5 million people in the United States with the devastating neuro-immune disease ME (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis), also known as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, or ME/CFS, many advocates are focusing more on the local and state level."
