Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As you may or may not know, my brother Cai has been ill with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome since last year.

It is a horrible disease which leaves Cai aching, with constant nausea and being tired beyond tired! It took months for a diagnosis as various doctors and A&E consultants did not see the early signs and things only moved forward because of mums persistence.  They just looked at Cai as a lazy 14 year old who was going through growing pains and just needed to rest.

Eventually we received the diagnosis of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Please take a look at www.meassociation.org.uk which funds and supports research, provides information, support, education and training.

We are walking 26 miles to raise money and awareness for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome as we have found that even the most educated doctors need to be educated further.

It is a very long road which we are on with lots of twists and turns and it is exhausting for all of us, but especially Cai.  We are hoping that he will recover from this in the next year - at the moment Cai describes everyday as 'a rainy day' and we are just hoping for a rainbow and a full recovery.

Thank you for taking the time to read our story of 'Cais Chronic Fatiguers' and please help in any way that you can. Even the smallest donation could make a big difference.

Thank you.

Brittany.
