Norwegian advocate and mother of three children with severe ME, Kjesrti Krisner, gave the pre-conference evening dinner presentation for the 11th International ME Conference by UK charity Invest in ME Research in London 2016. Kjersti's powerful and moving speech is included with the full conference presentations on the IIMEC11 DVD and has been uploaded by the charity prior to the 2017 events:

(I'd advise viewer discretion for patients/families on PR forum as the topic is very severe ME).
