For all people dealing with a personal or family diagnosis now, she offers help, hope and insights by explaining all the medical perspectives, but also reflecting on her own personal experiences after diagnosis.

Readers will find a strong connection with this talented physician and the thoughts and emotions that she has had facing MS.
