A Wish for Wings and Better Things
By:  Sara Glater

This beautifully illustrated book is written for children but had an undeniable message for everyone. The story is of a little girl who is sad for a friend that is ill and unable to come out to play. In uncomplicated language that can be understood by a 6- year old, the story unfolds and the lesson is given that true caring and companionship goes beyond an illness or the confines of a room or a hospital bed.

 

 

The Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Resource Book and Life Planner Workbook
By:  Dawn Hughes

 

A must resource for the millions of people affected by Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndromes. FMS and CFS, unlike well known and understood diseases like cancer, spring boards a journey for education, understanding and compassion. The book powerfully captures this journey, and is the first to provide patients, family and friends with the imperative resources to find support through their walk. In addition, The Life Planner, is a workbook that maps out a step-by-step guide for adapting and coping with the lifestyle changes fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue patients must face.

From the Author:

“About the book, I wrote it to help others make sense out of what a diagnosis meant and how to face the new life it presented. When I was diagnosed my doctor handed me a brochure and that was it. I had no idea what I was facing until I started researching the web. When I did discover what I was looking at...I could not believe that is all the support I was handed. What a nightmare. I figured if the book saved one person from having that burden ...then it was worth it.”
