A lost book reference
« on: November 10, 2010, 10:17:30 am »
Dear ones,
When I first started checking this website I found a wonderful suggestion for a book, and just knew I would come back to it.  Of course, I can't find it.  It was something about how to live with an invisible disease, and I had hoped it would help me a lot.  Maybe it was in an Emotional Disorders thread?  Most of us live with this feeling that others couldn't possibly understand the effects of an acoustical neuroma removal; I think this book would be a valuable find.
      Help, please?

I am not sure if this is it or not.  I just saw this on a long-ago post from this site and ordered the book last weekend.  I haven't received it yet so I don't know it's quality.  I found it on Amazon.com

Hope this helps
