Summary : This is a unique guide for women dealing with the difficulties of multiple sclerosis. After she was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 1976, author Judith Lynn Nichols realized that people suffering from chronic illness fare better when they share experiences with people fighting the same disease. While researching MS on the Internet, she connected with a group of women fighting to live with MS. The group quickly became each woman's support network, and, in the daily emails compiled in this book, they offered each other wisdom and humor about everything this disorder affects: diagnosis, employment, spirituality, family reactions, sexuality, pain control, depression, and more.

Summary : Communicating for Better Health provides a comprehensive, theoretically sound, and highly readable discussion of health communication in an ever-changing health care industry. With the advent of technology, consumerism, and managed care, relationships between health care participants have become increasingly problematic, with serious potential implications for care. This text offers a thoughtful and thought-provoking analysis of the issues and aspects of the field and explains how they influence and impact each other and other health care participants. Writing in a style widely praised by reviewers who "couldn't wait to read more," Beck uses specific examples including a personal narrative that unfolds throughout the text to inspire students to read, reflect, and re-examine the complexity of contemporary health communication.

Summary : Learn practical advice for living with a chronic illness in this thoughtful, compassionate collection of coping strategies from those who have experienced similar challenges. Chronic physical illnesses--such as lupus, Sjögren's syndrome, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, inflammatory bowel disorders, Lyme disease, interstitial cystitis, and multiple sclerosis--take their toll on every aspect of a person's life. Though millions of people manage to cook, care for children, or work while living with chronic illnesses, they often experience fatigue, pain, and difficulty in the process. A thoughtful exploration of this experience, A Delicate Balance provides both up-to-date practical advice and ideas for the millions of Americans who struggle daily against chronic illness. From locating a suitable health care provider and making sense of the powerful emotions that accompany chronic illness, to seeking accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act and applying for Social Security Disability Insurance, A Delicate Balance is informed by in-depth, personal interviews with patients, care providers, and family members. The result is a compassionate and immensely helpful book for anyone touched by a chronic disease.
