I received this book at a conference at work several years back and just decided to read it over lunch. This is a short and concise account of one woman's struggle with her AID's diagnosis, and of the role her faith has played in her treatment. Worth a read for healthcare professionals and anyone struggling with a serious illness of any kind.
