This book came into my life at just the right moment in time. The information is so vital to anyone having or loving someone with RA. This probably is the most thorough and easy read ever.The information on pain management was right on. This book is helping me to accept "what is" so that I can use my energy to heal.Just yesterday my doctor said I cannot work. In the midst of this new trial, God has given me hope through the inspired words of this book. Thank you for sharing.
