My Nonprofit Reviews

I first met the CEO of the Open Medicine foundation many years ago when she first contacted me because I have myself MEU/CFS. Even then I was very impressed with her passion, dedication, amazing capacity to build an organization, energy, and determination. Subsequently, I became a member of the board of directors and have developed a wonderful rich, long-term friendship with her. I value her judgment, regarding interpersonal issues at work and elsewhere, how to best connect or not connect with various people and organizations related to MECFS, and how I can in any small way contribute to the research in a cure or treatment for MECFS. She continues to build the organization and handle the complex financial matters, and it extremely professional and successful way. All we need to succeed is money from the NIH to accelerate our research. The research intern will benefit people with many related medical disorders and is desperately needed. As at least 2 million of us in this country alone have a MECFS and at least 80% of us are unable to work.
