If you were diagnosed with a crippling chronic illness in the prime of your life and everything that was considered normal vanished whom would you turn to? The person you would turn to is me, Linda D’Angelo because I have been suffering from rheumatoid arthritis for over ten years. The book you would purchase is my book “Failure Is Not An Option, Thriving with Rheumatoid Arthritis” because my book is the story of a woman who understands her illness and found the courage and strength of character to step up, face her fears and ascertain her desired outcome, thriving with rheumatoid arthritis. Whether you are newly diagnosed with this illness or a veteran wondering whether you will ever experience a normal life again, my advice to you is “fight” and “fight hard” because your quality of life and the lives of those close to you are in jeopardy. Life presents you with a number of challenges, these challenges can sometimes be unexpected, undeserved and beyond your control. Therefore it is important to remember that life is never about the challenge itself, it is about you, and how you choose to handle the challenge.

This review is from: “Failure Is Not An Option”: Thriving with Rheumatoid Arthritis (Hardcover)
There is an oft-quoted phrase by Aeschylus most famously used by Robert Kennedy in an eulogy for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. "In our sleep, pain which cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart until, in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom through the awful grace of God". Linda D'angelo endured her pain with great dignity and faith, and at the end she came out wiser and stronger.
This book gives a glimpse of her experience as a patient of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The onset of this ailment almost took away the self-respect of a strong and independent woman. Linda's amazing inner strength and common sense, along with some luck in the form of an experimental drug brought her back to an active, normal and enjoyable life. This book is not only the tale of personal triumph over suffering, but also a sourcebook for patients suffering from RA. The book is well researched and the prose is fluid.
