1 in 29 people will experience ME/CFS in their lifetime. That's not a rare disease; that's an underrepresented one.

Share this to help spread the word this May Awareness Month.

Many Canadians qualify for support but never claim it because of the overwhelming process.

Barrier-Free Benefits is here to change that. They help access current support programs with free one-on-one guidance.

@MEActNet We love you all <3

[#MEAction Network @MEActNet]

As Severe ME Day comes to a close, we light a candle to remember those we have lost. We send our love to all who are grieving. We hold each other in our hearts as we each have a list of names that goes through our minds as we light our candle.

#SevereMEday #UnitedforME

[World ME Alliance @WorldMEAlliance]

What if your body couldn’t bear light, sound, movement — or even touch?

Today, #SevereMEDay, we ask you to imagine living that way not just for a day… but for years.

For people living with Very Severe ME, this isn’t a metaphor — it’s reality.

[Bateman Horne Center @BatemanHorne]

In honor of #SevereMEDay, we’re launching #UnitedForME, a shared hashtag to amplify stories, art & education from the Severe ME community. Join us in uplifting voices that need to be heard. 💙 #SevereME @openmedf @plzsolvecfs @meactnet
