I am aware.

> ME Awareness Week takes place every May during the week of May 12th, which marks International ME Awareness Day. The aim is to raise awareness about Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome ([ME/CFS](https://www.meresearch.org.uk/diagnosing-me-cfs/)) -- [often shortened to ME](https://www.meresearch.org.uk/me-cfs-whats-in-a-name/) -- a complex and debilitating disease that extends far beyond fatigue and significantly impacts the lives of affected individuals.
