  We've made it easy to thank reporters!


Advocacy Alert: 11/29/2006

Three great newspaper articles appeared in local papers over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. We've made it easy to thank all 3 reporters, as well as 3 others who have recently reported on CFS and 3 more TV reporters.

Carrie Lovejoy profiled Terry Hedrick, PhD, a CFS patient and CFIDS Association Board member, in the Nov. 22 Maryland Independent newspaper. http://www.somdnews.com/stories/112206/indycov184704_32081.shtml

CFS patients Wilhelmina Jenkins and Pat Henderson were interviewed by Genoa Barrow, a writer for the Sacramento Observer, and an article ran in that paper on Nov. 22 as well.
