Overview

An inside look of a fifteen-year struggle with Multiple Sclerosis that almost turned deadly with twenty-some pneumonia and a thirty-day coma. Fighting to stay in the picture, fighting to stay alive in a collapsing body while raising my daughter. A personal, honest account of coming to terms with a debilitating disease. Learning to accept and live a life different than expected with love and hope.The book does not shy away from the darkness that comes from living with a chronic disease like MS, nor does it sugarcoat the hard struggle it takes to survive. The MS diaries gives the reader a point of view of having to live a life with a constant, chronic disease, with the enemy inside of you. It takes the reader on a journey through kaleidoscopic, vivid technicolor nightmares, sepia steeped memories and living in a body that is not yours. Living a life with disabilities has brought some absurd situations with it. Such as limping down from Mt. Fuji on one leg, swinging through the London Hilton on a lift buck naked and trying to propose on the Galapagos islands only to fall headfirst into a flock of marine iguanas. A disease steals moments, but even in this, my derailed journey, I have experienced moments of pure love with fellow patients and nurses. When living this far out on the edge of existence, life sheds its surplus layers.
