This book is part memoir, part practical guide to navigating the U.S. healthcare system and advocating for yourself. It offers valuable insights on finding community, hope, and managing your health by focusing on what you can control.
The author shares her story with honesty and courage, offering readers both guidance and hope in their own health journeys.
