Made a difference in my life...
I received your book, When Chronic Illness enters your Life, and can't begin to tell you what a difference it has made in my life. My fiancé was having a difficult time coming to grips with what it would mean to live with someone with a chronic illness and working through this book together is helping us both understand what the other deals with. Thank you so much. Tammi
