Produktbeschreibung

it started with a glass of water Eirik knew something was wrong. His girlfriend, Mari, had had a fever-and never fully came back. At first it was just fatigue. Then it got worse. In the end, a simple glass of water was enough to knock her out for hours. They thought it was stress. The GP didn't know. One specialist talked about burnout, another about mental health. No one understood. And meanwhile Mari kept collapsing-and Eirik was left standing there, alone and powerless, in the middle of what would soon be given a name: ME. ¿ a book for anyone who sees themselves in Eirik Maybe you've stood beside someone who isn't believed.
