Beyond my Control - Latest 5 Star Review!! 2/4/2009 3:29:23 PM
Good morning, friends, readers, and authors, I am delighted to share my latest 5 Star review from Amazon.com.
Thanks For Your Story, Stuart!
By R. Owen (Orinda, CA USA)Managing Editor, Epilepsy Journal: Insights and Strategies - Epilepsy Therapy Project
McCallum's story is remarkable and completely engrossing. Reading it is much more like hearing a good story being told rather than reading it on the page. It was an excellent education for me -- to get the perspective that he communicated. I have no personal experience with epilepsy, but I felt that I could relate to his story. It is not an uncommon experience among human beings to find yourself in a situation where you have no control. I think it is an experience we all share, and knowing that helps us all understand and identify with what it means to struggle with epilepsy. He does an amazing job of bringing humor into a decidedly not funny situation, at one point, comparing his behavior to Basil Fawlty's. His pre- and post-surgery experiences were harrowing, getting through that part is hard to imagine. The short-term and long-term support that he received from other people was truly amazing -- and his story makes it so clear how crucial that support was. To sum it up, I'm very glad to have read it.
Thank you, for taking the time to read my latest review.
