2-minute video of Dave reading his poem plus a separate text piece by him
Dave who became ill with #CFS at 21 17 years ago, describes what it’s like to live with the condition, the impact on his life & sense of self worth, & how he has built a meaningful life, despite the condition.
“Living with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is like being erased. It rubs out what my brain and body can do, turning me into a reduced version of myself.”
“Having CFS is like being a dormant seed, waiting for just enough energy to come alive.”
