ME-CFS Campain started May 12th 1992...Re: CAA's National CFS Campaign

[Guest guest]

This is weird. The first National awareness Campain came in 1992

without the support of the CAA.

May 12th is the date.

In 1995 CAA took the poster by the Campain group RESCIND and used it

for a few years putting their name on the poster and taking RESCIND

off of it. Tom Hennessey and others such as my self were the ones who

launched May 12th International Awareness Day and we had that day

until 2000 when NFA/Lynne Matalana left the CFIDS/CFS movement and

started her FAME thing.
