I have read Toni's book and have been staying in touch with her from time to time. I have MS, but it took 10 years to diagnose me correctly...and a lot of doctors who just didn't listen fully...said unkind, uncompassionate things....made assumptions...it was so painful emotionally. Toni's book is very helpful, and very much in alignment with the way I live with my illness...I am not Buddhist, I'm Jewish, but integrate some Buddhist practices such as metta and mudita into my daily life. Gratitude of course is big for me...appreciating every blessing no matter how small. I'm so happy I found your blog through Toni's fb page...I look forward to learning more about you through your blog.
