One of the reasons she is so appealing, is because she puts a face, and lends a voice to the often misunderstood, “Chronic Pain Patient”. I finished her book in five days, after reading about it in the Boston Globe. I loved that she talked about the shame and silence that often accompanies chronic pain in women. She is a fellow warrior in the fight to accept our burden of unrelenting pain.
