M.E. support links

M.E. - WHAT IS IT? 

 M.E. is an acquired complex neurological disorder affecting multiple systems of the body. The body’s ability to generate and produce energy at a cellular level is seriously impaired meaning systems and organs cannot function properly causing progressive systemic deterioration.


Here a few snapshots from the internet:

Blogs:

I am one of the founding member of M.E. Advocates Ireland - see our blog for lots of information about ME in Ireland, personal stories as well as our advocasy efforts.

M.E. Explained on Youtube:

  • The Golden Girls 'sick and tired'
  • Fit to Fly DVD/Documentary was the brainchild of Irish artist David Begley. "In this documentary the artist Corina Duyn talks openly about her growth over the past years and how her journey (through M.E.) has informed her art making":  part 1  & part 2 The first video starts with a black screen, please be patient, the video proper starts in a few seconds)
  • Radio interview with Sean O'Rourke (and my co-interviewee Sarah Meehan) from 10th June 2015 Youtube with images of my work
  • Podcast about the This Ability exhibition which tells a lot about my life with M.E
