This book is an intimate portrait drawn from the e-mail chats of 23 special women. In forming an online support group, they became friends - and then comrades in the toughest fight of their lives, a fight against the disease they dubbed the MonSter: multiple sclerosis. Many books about this enigmatic disease of the central nervous system provide only medical information. Women Living with Multiple Sclerosis goes one step - many steps -- further. Members of the all-woman group share intimate, emotional accounts of their experiences with MS. Some stories are painful, some are deeply funny, and often they are both.
