You are kidding aren’t you??
If your daughter has a drug habit bad enough to warrant going into a treatment facility I would want to keep my grandson well away from her until she gets her act together.
Was your grandson born with a drug habit as well?

@DiamonDie Hello, I should point out, no one is claiming antiretrovirals are a good treatment for ”CFS/ME”. CFS/ME is a political construct and doesn’t exist as there is no test. The CDC confirm XMRV is a genuine human retrovirus. Retroviruses are treated with anti retroviral drug therapy. I am sure ”CFS/ME” can be treated by LDN and just about anything else because the cohort is highly hetereogenous and thus has a multitude of causes and will react to treatment through various means.
Great speech, though I disagree about retrovirals being a good treatment. There are over 200 medications that can be used to treat CFS/ME, including some that can occasionally even be curative, and dozens that are far safer than retrovirals. Low dose naltrexone is a better treatment for HIV/AIDS than HAART and we already know it often works like a charm in CFS/ME.
Yes, we need more studies, more research, but if people want to experiment with drugs on their own, there are better options.
Thank you Mindy. Watching this, listening to it, gave me chills and brought me to tears. You are a profoundly exceptional public speaker. I live in the UK and I’ve had ME for 17 plus years. Housebound for 10 years, bedridden for 7, coming on 8 years.
I can’t tell you how grateful I am for all the honest investigative journalism you have done. I’m sure I say this for thousands of other ME sufferers too ill to speak out: Thank you for speaking for me.
Thank you so much for this, Mandy. A passionate, articulate speech.
Thank you for your efforts in editing and uploading these vids!
Beautiful!
Thank you, Mindy. Very powerful.
Why no treatment for ME patients? Because ME is not properly diagnosed. The shell game is ME/CFS. ME is not CFS and should never be diagnosed as such. CFS brings in the wrong cohort. She is talking about ME. This is a CFS committee. It is up to us. If we want help we need to be properly diagnosed with ME.
@thx1138mindlock I know it says the transcript is at cfs central, and I’m sure it’s there, but I can’t find it. Could you please put a DIRECT link to it? Thanks so much.
Time someone spoke clear! Thanks Mindy!
This is so good adn so long overdue. Thank you for speaking out on our behalf – we lack the energy for a fight – we are trying to stay alive.
@thx1138mindlock THANK YOU. I can’t find it there, alas. It was taken down, or, now that I think of it, it might be a Blogger problem. It’s not working today so I’ll check it out again in the next few days. Thank you again.
Powerful. Do you know if there is a trasncript of this?
Why did Wanda Jones refuse to commit to helping Mindy Kitei? It is shameful.
I’m blown away by the passion of mindy’s speach, thank you so much xx
As ever Mindy is an inspiration to us all!
Liked.
