Look for this article to share with friends and family over the Thanksgiving holiday...
CFS patient and CFIDS Association Board member Dr. Terry Hedrick is profiled on the front page of the Nov. 22 issue of The Independent, southern Maryland's newspaper. The story, titled "Finding the Energy to Fight: Chronic fatigue patients struggle for normal lives," describes the acute onset of illness this former federal researcher experienced and how it has impacted her life and career over the past 12 years. Local health care professionals Dr. Coryse Braithwaite and Anne Crowley are interviewed and information about the CFIDS Association is included in the article by Carrie Lovejoy.
