MY BOOKS

Multiple sclerosis is a
neurologic disorder associated with the immune system and many persons with MS as well as healthcare professionals don’t have an adequate understanding of how it affects a person’s cognitive processes, mood and ability to interact appropriately. This book describes what it does to the nervous system and outlines exciting new research in terms of memory and exercise. It not only provides information from professionals in the field, but interviews with persons with MS where they tell of their challenges and their unique solutions to some of the problems brought on by the disorder. The book also contains numerous references and resources as well as self-help information. http://amzn.to/brxTEC (Amazon) and http://bit.ly/q9HXSR (Barnes & Noble).

Perhaps you need a therapist or maybe not. This book is intended to help you see what you can do for yourself and to provide some assistance should you decide you want to go into therapy. http://amzn.to/ht4J10 (Amazon),

Not everyone has health insurance and some who have it don’t have sufficient coverage or are not able to purchase their medications. With this thought in mind, the uninsured or underinsured, we will add to this page as we uncover more resources.

Some of the resources will be for assistance with prescriptions, others will be groups that offer help of some type in the area of healthcare services. If you wish to have a resource included, please send an email to me and we will consider it for inclusion.
