Synopses & Reviews
As part of our What to Do When the Doctor Says series, this book will help people newly diagnosed as well as those long-suffering with the disease to 1) understand the disease, 2) treat the disease, and 3) live with the disease. Number three is most important as this is a disease with no cure which requires vigilance in diet, exercise, and medication on a daily basis.
