(Nov 2, 2016) "Makayla Nunn, aged 13, was diagnosed with myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) when she was eight years old. Because of her illness, she has had to cut down her hours at school, and give up dancing and sport." '''Dear anti-Trump protesters: don’t forget those of us with disabilities'''<ref>{{citation |last = Hill|first = Jamison | date = Feb 10, 2017 | title = Dear anti-Trump protesters: don’t forget those of us with disabilities |url= http://www.vox.com/first-person/2017/2/10/14567112/trump-protest-disabilities-inclusivity?utm_campaign=vox|newspaper= VOX |location= Washington, DC and New York, NY|access-date= }}</ref> ''VOX'' By: [[Jamison Hill]]. (Feb 10, 2017) "Between 3 million and 5 million people took to the streets as part of the Women's March the day after Donald Trump's inauguration. And on January 28 and 29, thousands of people descended on airports throughout the nation to protest Trump's "Muslim ban". I was not one of the protesters. I have myalgic encephalomyelitis (or chronic fatigue syndrome), a disease that has left me bedridden and unable to speak full sentences for the past two years, more than a year of which I was unable to eat, tolerate light, elevate my head, or laterally move my limbs. I am one of the disabled who cannot march. I can't even attend a demonstration in a wheelchair." ====Millions Missing==== '''ME affects four times as many women as men.

(Sep 27, 2016) "Today friends and families of people with myalgic encephalopathy (ME) are taking to the streets of cities around the world to call for more funding for medical research and education about ME. I am joining them at the London demonstration of the Millions Missing campaign, outside the Department of Health."
