Sadly, the 2 million ME/CFS patients in the US has increased to between 5-9 million since the pandemic. And no more funding for ME/CFS.

… she wanted to tell me it was very late & the stand-in cook was occupied 🚻. Poor darling was worried the family wouldn’t eat dinner & all chances of eating a scrap would be lost until tomorrow. Her whole world was collapsing because my daughter needed to pee 🐶🍖😂

I’ve been enjoying your photography newsletters Ed & wondering what zoom lens you use for the long distance shots. I have a Canon EOS R7 & find the 100-400 zoom not quite enough. Thanks for inspiring me to take up photography again 🙏 Birds from my backyard

Since having cog fog, I type my card messages in notes first, so I can just copy on my card. Even then, dyslexia gets the better of me & I start a word with a letter from the middle of the word 🤦🏻‍♀️ no autocorrect for handwriting.

There’s an option to post in other languages but I can’t see an option to read in other languages. Surely it wouldn’t be too hard to have a translate option.

I hope they can find a way to reverse this. It’s so frustrating not being able to exercise.

I was inspired by your photography and saved up and bought myself a mirrorless Canon EOS R7 and zoom lens. Quite different to my old DSLR. Much to learn.

I started an account months ago then forgot all about it.
