There are ways out, and this was ours.
Is it permanent? We don't know.
Is it for everybody? We don't know.

What on Earth is going on?
- an undeniable truth -

ENGLISH version PART 2 of 2

Can you really free yourself from a chronic disease like CFS/ME?

Vanessa (54) told me about an intensive brain-training course that helped free her of ME/CFS (Myalgic Encephalopathy/ Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) after 17 years of serious suffering.

My daughter (17) went to Wales for this 3-day course after 4 years of ME. It worked.

But would it work for the most severely ill?
Thomas (27) allowed me to film.

What on Earth is going on?

The last 4 years I have asked everybody; researchers, doctors, patients, family, therapists, practitioners, nurses, carers ... Vanessa, my daughter and Phil Parker who designed the method he called The Lightning Process.

NOTICE: This film is a personal, independent documentary telling our story, searching for evidence, presenting thoughts evoked over years. Anyone using it as PR for business purposes, does so against my professional intention of independence.

Vanessa Cecil and my daughter's fatigue therapist in Wales, Amir Norris, are both practitioners independent of Phil Parker's Lightning Process. 

If searching for a practitioner, ask around, and trust your sense of preference.
