ME/CFS rep
For all of us with ME/CFS. For all of us with chronic illness. For all of us who wish to be seen and heard and loved and understood. I get you and youβre not alone.
I hope these books help heal a part of your heart, or that they teach you something valuable. Sending you love and vitality π
Pls note: Piranesi and Cinder House are (only) inspired by the authorsβ experiences with ME, and some books donβt specify ME in a character but show the experience anyway.
