Default Has anybody read

I was given a book a few months ago to read called "Strong at the Broken Places voices of illness, a chorus of hope written by Richard M. Cohen. Just wondered if anyone else has read it? Had a hard time getting started on it but I would recommend it to anyone who is going through a tough time. Pidge

Here is the book thread

Book Recommendations?

I think that the Stories of Hope sub-forum can be whatever we want it to be, it doesn't necessarily have to be happy or upbeat but if it has some meaning to us that is larger than the day to day dealing with this disease then that is the place for it.

I will look for the book Pidge, thanks.
