Petition to prevent Marcia's avoidable death and help people with ME in BC

December 19, 2024 by DABC

We have been asked to share a petition to help a person with (Marcia Doherty, known publicly online as Madeline), and all people with ME in British Columbia. The petition is not limited to residents of BC – people across Canada and the world can sign.

It calls on the Government of British Columbia, Canada, to take action “to address systemic bias and ensure adequate, life-saving supports for Marcia and the thousands of other British Columbians with ME.”
