Opis

Numerous books about Chronic Fatigue Syndrome can be found in the medical sections of every major bookstore in the country. It is estimated more than one million people have CFS. And they are looking for information. In fact, dozens of books have been written about the subject over the last few decades, and several have gone on to multiple printings. In the Shadow of the Eclipse is a collection of poems that explore the heart and soul of the illness. Written by a CFS patient during the most critical years of her experience facing the daily challenges presented by this painful, debilitating and often misunderstood disease, the author vividly describes life with CFS. This is a book for patients, their families, and those in the medical profession who want to understand the mysteries of this ravaging malady. This is an eloquent portrait of an illness, a powerful and moving description of loss and hope.
