Product Description |
| Eighteen years ago Joan Grady-Fitchett was diagnosed with Parkinsons disease. Rejecting her doctors prognosis, Grady-Fitchett decided to live life to the fullest, and drew strength from her spiritual center, which uplifted her on the good days and sustained her through the bad. Grady-Fitchetts unique literary voice makes this illness and its effects understandable. |

 You'll cry & laugh--a Horse Whisperer tragedy, in her body. |
| Review Date: August 24, 1998 |

| An amazing woman fights the little and big things that are no longer familiar. This disease, this invader, is slowing crashing her body. All she has left is spirit and persistence, but these are powerful. Joan's writing is tight and moving. It takes you along with her from the top of success in professional modeling. From anger. Through realization and fear. Through lovers and pain, and to rest of her life. The reader will come away a little smarter, a lot braver, and a little less a victim in their own life. |
An enjoyable informative human interest writing.

| Fighting the challanges of Parkinson's Disease, sometimes winning, sometimes losing; along with general living experiences made this book an informative and enjoyable read for me. However, it ended too soon. Did she have the surgery and what were the results? |

| I found this book to be inspiring for anyone suffering from Parkinsons. Joan Grady-Fitchett the author has done an excellent job of relating to the reader the gamut of emotions involved in the diagnosis of Parkinsons. Her strong mental attitude and determination should inspire others to do the same.The book also gives important information on doctors to contact and the success and failure of her medications and treatments. |
