Changing Hearts and Minds: A Review of Unrest

[Marcia Myers]

I saw "Unrest" today in Chicago. I am healthy but my daughter has been sick for 6 years. What a movie (strong,emotional, so put together) I am still reeling from it. Currently, my daughter is not as ill as the people in the movie and she is lucky for that. Our family is lucky for that. This does not diminish what she goes through. This movie is certainly one that makes you aware of ME/CFS. I do have a question and one that might sound as if I think the movie was not hopeful (don't shoot me) in my daughter's situation. Can she get worse? I have not yet asked her Dr. this question yet. Under his care she has improved and plateaued and improved and plateaued. Did anyone else feel a little hopeless after seeing this or am I just a Mom that is tired.
