Facing Health Issues with Humor and Grace

Beschreibung

In 1988 my family and I were involved in a head-on car crash. I survived the first night thanks to two surgical teams working simultaneously. This was followed by repeated surgeries and rehab and has left me with serious and lifelong medical complications which require daily attention. It also resulted in a neurological disease which has had a serious impact on my autonomic nervous system. My healing path has included a myriad of doctors and alternative treatments however none have been more important than my art, humor and positive outlook. Dealing with ongoing medical issues and pain can be a lonely and demoralizing experience. I have worked hard to shift my perspective, find grace in difficult times and see the humor in medical issues and mishaps. I participate in a number of websites and Social Media for people dealing with similar medical issues. Over the years I have shared my perspective, advice and humor with thousands of people coping with illness. Really Sick Jokes is an easy and lighthearted read for anyone dealing with medical issues. It encourages readers to shift their perspective on illness and see the humor in challenging situations. The book also shares insights and advice I have used to navigate the journey of healing.
