Suzan Jackson is a freelance writer whose work focuses on topics related to health, family, travel, and media reviews and has appeared in many magazines, websites, and anthologies. She has had ME/CFS, an immune disorder, since 2002, and also has Lyme disease. Both of her sons also became ill with ME/CFS in 2004, at ages 6 and 10. Her younger son is now fully recovered, after 10 years of mild illness. Her elder son, who recently began his first full-time job, still has ME/CFS as well as three tick-borne infections. Sue and her sons managed to improve their conditions with a number of treatments. She runs several support groups, both online and locally, to help others with similar conditions. Sue has written two blogs for over 17 years: Live with ME/CFS, about living with chronic illnesses, and Book By Book, featuring reviews of books, TV, and movies. She also wrote a book, Finding a New Normal: Living Your Best Life with Chronic Illness that is available in paperback and e-book everywhere.

When Sue Jackson was struck with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome in 2002, she never expected her two young sons would be diagnosed with the same debilitating condition. Despite the challenges it posed, Sue found strength in building a community of others affected by CFS and, together, they found ways to cope and manage their symptoms. Little did they know that what started as a quest for relief would turn into a powerful movement of compassion, hope, and resilience.
In this episode, you will be able to:
1. Discover the intricacies of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome diagnosis, symptoms, and treatment hurdles.
2. Uncover the impact of CFS on parenting, relationships, and emotional well-being.
3. Grasp the significance of robust support networks for unseen illnesses.
4. Explore advocacy initiatives that promote CFS awareness and comprehension.
5. Learn how to manage daily responsibilities and self-care routines while living with a chronic condition.
