Story
Hi,
I've started this page as I'm running the London Marathon this year for "Action for ME" . My oldest friend, Nick, was knocked down by ME several years ago and has effectively lost the best years of his adult life to it. The condition can be completely life destroying as in Nick's case and has resulted in him living in isolation for the last few years unable to see friends and family. My aim is simply to complete the race and raise as much money as possible to help people with ME through "Action for ME".
ME is well described on "Action for ME's" website (www.afme.org.uk) and can lead to any combination of severe fatigue, memory loss, concentration loss or muscle pain. It's not well understood medically hence the need to raise awareness and money to help those who suffer and research the condition further. These are all good reasons to give to help! thanks for taking the time to visit the page and time to visit my page and hope you give generously!
