`The writter's bravery in challenging, and ultimately recovering from, such a devastating illness serves as evidence to others that there really is hope of a positive and successful outcome...Feigenbaum's literary style is consistently empathic and supportive throughout the book. Her honesty and candidness about her own personal situation, alongside her efforts to support others in a similar position, should be highly commended.`
