The Golden Girls: Dorothy’s Struggle With CFS/ME – Awareness Videoyoutu.be #TheGoldenGirls #DorothyZbornak #ChronicFatigueSyndrome #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis #ChronicallyIll #Housebound #MillionsMissing DISCLAIMER: THIS VIDEO IS INTENDED FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND NOT FOR MONETARY GAIN. ALL CLIPS FEATURED BELONG SOLELY TO WALT DISNEY STUDIOS HOME ENTERTAINMENT. I CONSIDER THIS VIDEO'S CONTENT TO BE OF FAIR USE AND NOT AN INFRINGEMENT OF COPYRIGHT. IT IS STRICTLY FOR AWARENESS. The Golden Girls is my favourite TV show of all time, full of life’s struggles, dealt with through wonderful humour, inspiring wisdom and heart-warming love by four incredible women, who share a house in Miami. (If you’ve never seen it, do. It’s amazing!) Between 1985 and 1992, the seven seasons covered a range of topics, all of which are still relevant today. It was created by US TV producer Susan Harris. Susan suffered during the 1980s and, I believe, is still suffering now with what is termed predominantly in the US as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. It is also known as Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/neuroimmune disease. The historical waters pertaining to said disease are murky in the extreme, and there is a wealth of information on the internet about its thought origin and the subsequent damage caused by medical professionals (loose term!) throughout the last several decades. Such neglect and life-threatening abuse is still ongoing today, twenty-nine years after this storyline aired, primarily at the hands of ignorant and arrogant psychiatrists. As someone with considerable medical knowledge, I can tell you that AWARENESS of this brutal, unforgiving, unrelenting and cruelly debilitating disease is paramount, in order to move forwards with EFFECTIVE treatment. I have selected the relevant sections from this special two-part episode Sick and Tired, from Season Five, which aired in 1989, to highlight how much HASN’T changed, as well as draw attention to the poignant words spoken by Dorothy throughout, and most especially at the end. Having been on the receiving end of disbelief, extremely nasty comments and woefully erroneous assumptions, I thought, when rewatching the episodes recently, someone should do a video like this. I decided that someone should be me, since those four characters mean so much to me, and have literally helped me survive through suffering I wouldn't ever wish on another soul.
