PAC: People with MS with Courage to Give Waldman, Jackie. Conari Press, 2003. With the first chapter in this book detailing Jackie's own journey and struggle with multiple sclerosis, it continues on with 24 stories of men and women also living with the disease, who like Jackie, refused to be defined by their illness. Every person and their story is unique but all portray how they went far beyond just living and dealing with MS everyday. From an M.D. who founded a revolutionary course called The Disability Experience so health care workers could know what it's like to live with a disability to a former TV star who hid his disease for 15 years and is now an ambassador for the National MS Society, their stories showcase how they found the courage to do more and make the lives around them better. |
