Hello
I have just received the following response from the Horizon program:
Hi Miriam
Further to your below email, please see this link - . It's a Time magazine article on Emus Van Someron's findings. He used 1000 lux light bulbs instead of the usual 300 lux ones.
This article is about how lux equates to watts -
Hope this is useful.
Many Thanks
The Horizon Team.
I emailed back,and asked how I can get hold of them, I will let you know, when I do.

Exciting news at last
Hello
Yesterday evening, I watched Horizon, it was about the body clock, and one thing that jumped out at me, was that they did an experiment with elderly people who had
dementia, they changed the type of light bulb they used in their lighting, and it made a big difference to their cognitive brain function. Now I know that I am neither elderly, or have dementia, but I do have problems with my brain function, so I emailed them straight away for more information, once I hear back, I will post it here.
Last night, I went to bed so exciting that my brain might start to work properly at last, that I could hardly sleep.

When will this misery end??!!
Hello
The last two weeks have been hell for me, I have suffered big time from ME.
Two weeks of doing nothing, but resting, and even that was exhausting, why is it, when you try to have a bit of a life, you go bang shortly after, and your life has gone, you are back to your living death experience.
This is not life; it is hell on earth that is what it feels like sometimes.
I cry out, why do I have to go through this, what have I done to deserve this pain.
Why can’t I have my old life back, of going to work, having a social life, rather being stuck here, day in day out, hardly having the energy to talk to a soul.
When will this end….

Social networking and ME?
Hello
This week has been a tad busy, its been snowing, and I've been loving it, I have been going out, and standing out in it, its been wonderful.
I have also had one media interview on ME for some national magazines, and sent one article to the local rag, that was published, regarding the judicial review, that is being held next week over the Nice guidelines for people who have ME, it will be interesting to see how it goes.
However, I have also had a light bulb, experience, I was watching South Today, and they said, about a guy, that had a social networking site for people who have cancer, then I thought, is there any such thing for people who have ME? I am not really into them, I think they are a bit dodgy, as you never know, if the person/people you are talking to are geniune or a fruad, so what I did, was contact Afme, and The M E Assocation, to see if one exists if non does, I will ask for a piece to be put in their mags, to see if there is a need, and possibly do a video for You Tube, asking the same thing, if there is a need, I might try and reach it.
One big thing about ME, is the issue of isolation, as many sufferers can't get out, I know, I am one! this would help people connect with each other. I would have to make sure that it involved minimal work on my part, however at the moment it is very much at the research stage.
Do you know if there is a social networking site for people who have ME, if there is, please do let me know its url, if there isn't, would you like to see one come together, thanks. I would not so much use it as a money making venture, but as a way for people who have ME to support each other.
