“The state was unable, and to some degree, unwilling to treat her.” As his daughter with severe ME was dying "a painful and difficult death", Times journalist Sean O'Neill says he had to “fight” for her palliative care "because doctors didn't believe in ME”. @TimesONeill

My eldest daughter Maeve died aged 27 on October 3. For half her life she had Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME). Bit by bit this awful illness stole the youth, promise, independence and eventually the life of an intelligent, creative, wonderful young woman.
