A Body Broken is written by a chronic pain sufferer. When the horrific pain hits, her life becomes consumed by her and her husband's search for a cure. Her story is something that so most of us can truly relate to. I cried through parts of the story, seeing myself and my family in her shoes. The last part of the book is AWESOME and really informative.

I highly recommend the book to all RSDers.

"The Last Lecture" was great also, I read that one when it came out. I also saw the lecture online. Profoundly moving and another tear jerker for me...

XOXOX Sandy (from RI - where it is finally sunny this weekend!! YAY!!)

Good books are so inspiring and keeps us reading for hope in a positive viewpoint.
