I have had Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) since March 2002. Both of my sons also got ME/CFS at ages 6 and 10. Our younger son fully recovered after 10 years of mild illness. Our older son still has ME/CFS and also has Lyme disease plus two other tick infections. This blog is about how our family lives with chronic illness, with a focus on improving our conditions and enjoying our lives in spite of these challenges.

Fascinating WSJ Article on Retroviruses
Our best friend at the Wall Street Journal, Amy Dockser Marcus (who has written some excellent articles on CFS) has written another article, a look at the latest research on how ancient viruses can contribute to modern disease. Her article, How Old Viruses May Haunt Us, is not solely about CFS. In fact, CFS is only mentioned in the last paragraph, but the information she provides is absolutely fascinating and very relevant to the puzzles surrounding CFS.
