Summary: Essential to MSer's and those close by them
Comment: Beware of this review since I have been friends with the author of WOMEN LIVING WITH MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS for over thirty-five years. Even so, believe me when I say this volume is engaging, enraging, frank, well-written, humorous, and a must for any person with multiple sclerosis or for any person close to such an individual. I think that upon reading this book, a person with MS would experience an emotional release through hearing from those who UNDERSTAND. It will encourage a person to find support and show it is possible to be supported and to live well with MS.
The book flows smoothly even with the numerous transitions required to share the views of the many MSer's represented by Ms. Nichols. The multiple (no pun) contributors format could have been one of the book's weaknesses, but turned out to be a strength.
Whether or not you have multiple sclerosis or another chronic disease, reading this book will make you wonder at the flexibility and resiliency of the human spirit--all twenty of them.

Summary: Welcome to my life!!!
Comment: Having lived with M.S. for over 20 years, I've read everything I could get my hands on. Nothing I read reached me like Women Living with Multiple Sclerosis. I loved it. Ms. Nichols and her "froup" members made me feel so welcome, so understood, so OK about myself. The book was so unabashedly frank, so helpful, and so very on target that I bought copies for two women friends with M.S., and gave my book to my mother and several other friends to read, just so they could see what it's like being ME, in layperson's terms, with no clinical mumbojumbo. This book is fabulous! Every woman with a diagnosis of M.S. - and all those who love her - should read this book. We really are all in this together, and there is so much for us to learn and share.

Summary: I'M GLAD I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE!
Comment: Well any of you that have MS will know exactly what I mean by the title of the review. I ordered this book from Ireland at the end of December and was delighted to recieve it the first week in January. I picked it up two days ago to read and could not put it down until I finished it at 1.30 a.m this morning.
It is so enlightening to read the experiences of all who particpated in the book, and to know that what I have experienced - you have also experienced - despite the Doctors telling me - "well that has nothing to do with M.S., be it my poor swallow, the MS hug, the pain in my face, the electrical sensations, or just the plain old fatigue!" Which my neurologist says there is no such thing as! Fatigue that is!. The stories are so common place with MS and I am delighted that you all have much the same temprament as myself, which I think the majority of MS patients have - - it is not a death sentance - its a life sentance, so therefore, we have to live with it whether we like it or not. And who could possible like it? You have truly inspired me ladies, and I am strongly thinking of setting something similiar up in Ireland. If you want to know something about MS - ASK SOMEONE WITH MS. I look forward to reading more of your books. By the way I havent been able to read a book in such a long time, but I think perhaps the short paragraphs made it a lot easier, as you know when your eyes start jumping on a page its almost impossible to find your place again. Keep up the good work, and for anyone who is thinking about purchasing this book - don't think - buy it now. I have a list of 10 of my friends who are waiting to read this plus family members.
Yours in M.S. Elaine.
