The author's own experiences when she found she had ME at the age of eighteen, Hazel Stapleton suddenly went from being a healthy, active teenager who had just embarked on a career in nursing, to being chronically ill, with numerous serious health complications developing over the subsequent years, leaving her house-bound and now mainly bed-bound. Since her diagnosis with the neuroimmune disorder ME (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis), Hazel has realized that many people are unaware of the impact and serious nature of this illness, which is often portrayed as a psychological problem. In this book, through telling of her own experiences of ME, she seeks to raise awareness about this devastating condition and the effects it has on people's lives. Show more
