My sister has been struggling with symptoms of Fibromyalgia for close to 10 years now and I have to admit I did not truly understand what she goes through. Reading FibroWHYalgia gave me greater insight into the roots and ups and downs of living with this disease. Sue's writing style, humor, honesty, and personal experience, along with the invaluable information that is easily understandable makes this book a great resource.

Sue's book offers a wealth of knowledge not only for the chronic illness sufferer but also for anyone looking to rebuild their health. I found myself reading and re-reading it. Sue's words echoed in my mind as I was reminded that it's about being practical in order to be successful. If you live with chronic illness or fibromyalgia, or know someone who does, the advice found in FibroWHYalgia is worth every penny and more.
