"For first time in the world we have the opportunity to start to examine the cause and effect to try to understand the biomedical basis."

Tucker. (Oct 5, 2015) "Before he got sick, [[Whitney Dafoe]] was an award-winning photographer and a world traveler. He’d helped build a nunnery in India, ridden a motorcycle in the Himalayas and visited all 50 American states. He also worked on Barack Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign, and although he was already ill by January 2009, pushed himself to travel to Washington from his California home to photograph the inauguration."

(Spring 2016) "For three years, Whitney Dafoe’s world has been a darkened room at the end of a hallway in the back of his childhood home.

Wittenberg. (Feb 15, 2017) "This blog was inspired by the good news that the [[National Institutes of Health]] (NIH) has doubled its research budget for myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). However, it was shocking to see that the increase was from $7.6 million last year to $15 million this year. This is a very small research budget given that hundreds of thousands, even as high as 2.5 million men, women, and children suffer from this syndrome. Several studies use different criteria for diagnosis making for a wide variance in prevalence. The economic cost of ME/CFS is estimated at $17 to $24 billion annually [1]. NIH is the nation’s premiere biomedical research agency and as such, whatever budget is allotted, its influence adds credibility to the importance of studying ME/CFS."
