The name of the chronic fatigue syndrome is unspecific but appropriate for a condition that includes such symptoms as constant fatigue and exhaustion," Dr. David Bell, a CFS specialist, explains. In 1994, scientists at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), a federal research agency, got together to set a definition for this condition and to provide guidelines for doctors to diagnose it more easily and rapidly, but they could only come to an agreement on two points; that fatigue should last six months or more and should not be caused by another illness, and that four of the following symptoms should be present: unexplained muscle pain, sore throat, enlarged lymph nodes, memory loss or impaired concentration, headaches, sleep that is not refreshing and sleep problems.

This qualitative study, based on a series of 30 in-depth interviews and 109 economic surveys conducted with active heroin users residing in and around Detroit, Michigan, describes reported patterns of heroin use and income generation activities.

Such human interest stories, molded by the techniques of fiction, put a face on the bewildering universe of medical ethics, risky procedures and end-of-life choices. A study of trends in Pulitzer Prize-winning feature stories, published in the Winter 2005 edition of the Newspaper Research Journal, found that "a significant number of winning stories involved a death by murder or illness." In a similar vein, Northwestern's Weldon says that as more ordinary people become the sources quoted in news coverage, readers increasingly regard them as just as credible as public officials.
