Faulty Wiring: Living with Invisible MS by Suzanne Robins

I must be blunt.  Multiple Sclerosis is one helluva disease.  I don't have it, thankfully. However, reading Faulty Wiring revealed that I have risk factors, including a sister who has the disease.  Needless to say, I lost a bit of sleep over that.

I am very grateful to have read this book by Suzanne Robins.  I now understand much more about this insidious disease that assaults so many bodies and lives. Robins is a terrific writer and she describes her MS experience with candor, boldness, and finesse. Intimately, she shares the impact the disease has had on her life, her fears, and the many lessons she has learned, as well as her frustrations in finding a diagnosis and treatment.  She handles how to tell children the truth about illness with great sensitivity.  Robins also provides frank and well-researched details about the physical, mental and emotional manifestations of MS.  And her lengthy, comprehensive list of resources and references are of great value to the MS patient, as well as those wishing to learn more about the disease. 

Reading Faulty Wiring gave me a deep respect for Robins, as researching and writing a book like this is a tremendous undertaking, requiring a great amount of will, commitment, and energy.  Despite the difficulties her disease presented, she produced an excellent adjuvant resource and companion for anyone commencing on a journey with Multiple Sclerosis. I have recommended Faulty Wiring to my sister, and I recommend it wholeheartedly to you.
