Summary:Because Multiple Sclerosis is a disease that someone will live with for years, or even decades, it is important for family and friends to understand what the person is going through and learn how to give support.
Multiple Sclerosis used to be feared because it was so unpredictable and doctors knew very little in how to treat it. Thanks to good research and great doctors, people can live with MS even though there is not a cure yet. The Electrifying Story of Multiple Sclerosis is written to help people understand what it feels like to have the disease and how to help.
My Review:
The Netgalley page for this lists it as Nonfiction (Adult) so I was thinking it was going to be an intense read. But it's easy to follow along that a younger person could benefit from it. It has simple illustrations almost cutesy with some.
Easy to follow and learn from. Even goes into detail on how to try to see how someone with MS deals with everyday chronic issues.
Recommend? Yes, great for people who have someone in their life with this. Or, just for something to learn about in general. It doesn't go into great detail but it's good information.
