Rik Carlson and the Vermont CFIDS Association have made a movie of Vermont CFIDS/ME/FM patients telling what it's like. It's called Invisible.

It's available as a DVD for $19.95. I haven't seen it yet, but the trailer looks good. They suggest showing it to family & friends to help them to understand.

Here's the link to the website: http://invisiblethemovie.com/invisible_home.html

If anyone knows how much they want for it to be sent to Europe, please post. I sent an E-mail a few days ago but no reply: maybe they're checking it out or maybe it got lost.

Hi Dolphin,

Got this message tonight from them:

Michael at Exile Media is away until Sunday night.
We have been inundated with overseas requests and are working out the details.
If he wrote to Michael at the email address from the website, he will hear back.

If you still don't hear back I can give you another route via PM.

Best regards,

Sing

Thanks.
Presumably the info will be out eventually so no major rush from me.

I wrote to Rik Carlson who sent out a message with a link to the site.

Mary Schweitzer posted on Facebook that she has seen it. She said it's fantastic and she recommends it to everyone.

Cort, when I order it, I'll do it through Phoenix Rising. Thanks for the heads up; it hadn't occurred to me. Doh!
