Beschreibung

Written by a cross section of men and women woven together by a common thread, Stricken: Voices from the Hidden Epidemic of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is a collection of personal essays and poems about the excruciating toll that CFS takes on the lives of its victims and their families. The daily struggles CFS sufferers go through to maintain a quality of life while the illness usurps physical and emotional strength, along with their battles against a sometimes ignorant and insensitive medical community, are starkly and candidly told. For those with CFS, their loved ones, care givers, and health practitioners, Stricken will teach, support, and offer hope and enlightenment.
